At the mouth of Ra’s tomb a passage opened wide
Revealing the catacombs that led down inside
The Forty Fearless Thieves! Never beg, rarely borrow!
Hopeful finders and keepers of a richer tomorrow!
Just a few stairsteps down in that dark winding hall
A hail of sharp spears, narrowly missing them all!
Thirty-three fearless thieves! Never beg, rarely borrow!
Hopeful finders and keepers of a richer tomorrow!
A few passageways on, by the torchlight they saw
Twelve thousand hairy spiders crawling out from the straw
Twenty-one fearless thieves! Never beg, rarely borrow!
Hopeful finders and keepers of a richer tomorrow!
Through a crack in the ground, a jagged bubbling fault
A river of magma that they would all have to vault
Eleven fearless thieves! Never beg, rarely borrow!
Hopeful finders and keepers of a richer tomorrow!
A few rooms further still, no treasure yet to be seen
A hundred foot basilisk with scales slimy green
The Forty fearless thieves! Never beg, rarely borrow!
Run scared through the desert; at least they’ll see tomorrow!
