Songs that mean a lot to me

Having been around here for a little while now, I'm under the impression that people don't share enough song lyrics with each other. In an attempt put this right I'd like to share with you a song that really menas a lot to me. I'd like to take it one step further and explain to everyone (in quite a bit of detail why the song and its lyrics mean so much).

The song that I've chosen for today is Walk like and Eqyptian by the Bangles.

Here goes:

All the old paintings on the tombs
They do the sand dance don't you know
If they move too quick (oh whey oh)
They're falling down like a domino (Reminds me of playing dominoes on the beach with my first love)

All the bazaar men by the Nile
They got the money on a bet
Gold crocodiles (oh whey oh)
They snap their teeth on your cigarette

Foreign types with the hookah pipes say
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh
Walk like an Egyptian (Reminds me of history stuff and pyramids and toucancarmen)

[The] Blonde waitresses take their trays (Reminds me of this cherry I once knew)
They spin around and they cross the floor
They've got the moves (oh whey oh)
You drop your drink then they bring you more (I did this once but I didn't get another drink - they chased me out of the bar)

All the school kids so sick of books
They like the punk and the metal band
When the buzzer rings (oh whey oh)
They're walking like an Egyptian

All the kids in the marketplace say
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh
Walk like an Egyptian

Slide your feet up the street bend your back
Shift your arm then you pull it back
Life['s] hard you know (oh whey oh)
So strike a pose on a Cadillac (This reminds me of the car section that should be here at OLM)

If you want to find all the cops
They're hanging out in the donut shop
They sing and dance (oh whey oh)
[They] Spin the clubs cruise down the block

All the Japanese with their yen
The party boys call the Kremlin
And the Chinese know (oh whey oh)
They walk the line like Egyptian (This whole verse reminds me of this sushi bar I once went to)

All the cops in the donut shop say
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh
Walk like an Egyptian
Walk like an Egyptian

Jislaaik this is a cool song.
