B-52`s The Mesopotamia Lyrics

Mesopotamia Lyrics

Turn your watch, turn your watch back,

 About a hundred thousand years.

 A hundred thousand years.

 

 I'll meet you by the third pyramid

 I'll meet you by the third pyramid

 Ah come on, that's what i want, we'll meet

 In mesopotamia. oh oh oh

 

 (we're goin' down to meet) i ain't no student,

 (feel those vibrations) of ancient culture

 (i know a neat excavation) before i talk

 I should read a book.

 But there's one thing i do know,

 There's a lot of ruins in mesopotamia.

 

 Six or eight thousand years ago

 They laid down the law. ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haa

 Six or eight thousand years ago

 They laid down the law. ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haa

 

 I'll meet you by the third pyramid

 I'll meet you by the third pyramid

 Ah come on, that's what i want, we'll meet

 In mesopotamia. oh oh oh

 

 (we're goin' down to meet) now i ain't no student,

 (feel those vibrations) of ancient culture

 (i know a neat excavation) before i talk

 I should read a book. (mesopotamia, that's where i wanna go)

 But there's one thing that i do know, (mesopotamia, that's where i wanna
go)

 There's a lot of ruins in mesopotamia.

 

 Six or eight thousand years ago

 They laid down the law. ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haa

 Six or eight thousand years ago

 They laid down the law. ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haa

 In mesopotamia. ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haa

 They laid down the law. ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haa

 In mesopotamia. ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haa
