1
What have you done my wife?
2
I'll beat you to an inch of your life
3
I'll try to explain if you kindly refrain
4
Then I sliced with the blade of my knife
5
Allistar I beat him bloody battered to the bone
6
My eyes were glazed with craziness
7
I lost all control
8
I drew my sword and pressed it squarely straight into his chest
9
I said tell me what have you done or I'll lay you to rest
10
A mystical place seen by no one
11
So we set off on the expedition
12
No turning back, nowhere to run
13
I now know my journey to hell had begun
14
Come with me come with me, on the expedition
15
Such secrets you will see, on the expedition
16
[Lead: Garcia]
17
Let me take you back, not but ten years ago
18
A village in Egypt that I called my home
19
My father, a doctor well known
20
His dreams, he would share them alone
21
I learned his ways I could amaze the people with my healing
22
My destiny was not to be what Daddy did desire
23
I yearned to find the secrets that the desert was concealing
24
A longing for adventure in me burning like a fire
25
[Chorus]
26
[Lead: Garcia]
27
The tomb of Osiris buried under centuries of sand
28
I knew, I knew I had to find it
29
Something beckoned me and forced my hand
30
With my father's funding I assembled all the best
31
One hundred men, supplies and archaeologists
32
We set out in the sands and followed faded clues
33
Something strangely guided me
34
It somehow ted me to the tomb of Osiris
35
After forty days and night we finally came to the site
36
Gazing at the ruins by moonlight
37
We set up our camp and began to explore
38
Amazing the massive size of that door
39
Digging scraping excavating ruins in the dust
40
The writings on that giant door were warnings we should trust
41
They spoke about an ancient race, the old ones from the stars
42
My scientist's translations told of creatures quite bizarre
43
[Chorus]
44
For twenty days and nights we worked at the site
45
Nothing we did would go right, trying to open that door
46
My men had not seen nothing like this before
