So you wanna go back to Egypt   Where it's warm and secure   Are you sorry you bought the one way ticket   When you thought you were sure?      You wanted to live in the land of promise   But now it's getting so hard   Are you sorry you're out here in the desert   Instead of your own backyard?      Eating leeks and onions by the Nile   Ooh, what breath but dining out in style   Ooh, my life's on the skids, give me the pyramids   Well, there's nothing to do   But travel and we sure travel a lot      'Cause it's hard to keep your feet from moving   When the sand gets so hot   And in the morning it's manna hotcakes   We snack on manna all day      And they sure had a winner last night for dinner   Flaming manna souffle   Well, we once complained for something new to munch   The ground opened up and had some of us for lunch      Ooh, such fire and smoke   Can't God even take a joke, huh?   (No)   So you wanna go back to Egypt   Where old friends wait for you   You can throw a big party and tell the whole gang   That what they said was all true      And this Moses acts like a big-shot   Who does he think he is?   It's true that God works lots of miracles   But Moses thinks they're all his      Well, I'm having so much trouble even now   Why'd he get so mad about that cow, that golden cow   Moses sits rather idle, he just sits around   He just sits around and writes the Bible      Oh, Moses, put down your pen   What? Oh no, manna again?   Oh, manna waffles, manna burgers   Manna bagels, fillet of manna   Manna patties, bamanna bread
