Ocean, Frank - Pyramids Lyrics
Set the cheetahs on the loose
There's a thief out on the move
Underneath our legion's view
They have taken Cleopatra
(Cleopatra, Cleopatra)
Bring her back to me
(Cleopatra, hey oh Patra ehh ehh Cleopatra)
Run run run the crown of our pharaoh
(Cleopatra, Cleopatra)
The throne of our queen is empty
(Hey oh' Patra, Cleopatra)
And we'll run to the future
Shining like diamonds in a rocky world
A rocky, rocky world
Our skin like bronze and our hair like cashmere
As we march to the rhythm
On the palace floor
Chandeliers inside the pyramids
Tremble from the force
Cymbals crash inside the pyramids
Voices fill up the halls
Set the cheetahs on the loose
There's a thief out on the move
Underneath our legion's view
They have taken Cleopatra, Cleopatra
The jewel of Africa
(Jewel)
What good is a jewel that ain't still precious
How could you run off on me?
How could you run off on us?
You feel like God inside that gold
I found you laying down with Samson
And his full head of hair
Found my black queen Cleopatra
Bad dreams Cleopatra
Remove her
Send the cheetahs to the tomb
Our war is over, our queen has met her doom
No more she lives, no more serpent in her room
No more, it has killed Cleopatra, Cleopatra
Big sun coming strong through the motel blinds
Wake up to your girl for now let's call her Cleopatra, Cleopatra
I watch you fix your hair
Then put your panties on in the mirror, Cleopatra
Then your lipstick, Cleopatra
Then your six inch heels
Catch her
She's headed to the pyramid
She's working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Pimping in my convos
Bubbles in my champagne
Let it be some jazz playing
Top floor motel suite, twisting my cigars
Floor model TV with the VCR
Got rubies in my damn chain
Whip ain't got no gas tank
But it still got woodgrain
Got your girl working for me
Hit the strip and my bills paid
That keep my bills paid
Hit the strip and my bills paid
Keep a nigga bills paid
She's working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
You showed up after work I'm bathing your body
Touch you in places only I know
You're wet and you're warm just like our bathwater
Can we make love before you go
The way you say my name makes me feel like
I'm that nigga
But I'm still unemployed
You say it's big but you take it
Ride cowgirl
But your love ain't free no more, baby
But your love ain't free no more
She's working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
That's right
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight

Chandeliers inside the pyramid, tremble from the force
Cymbals crash inside the pyramid, voices fill up the halls
Set the cheetahs on the loose

They have taken Cleopatra, Cleopatra
The jewel of Africa, jewel
What good is a jewel that ain't still precious?
How could you run off on me? How could you run off on us?

Já fiquei muito chapada escutando esse hino ( a partir de 4:50 eu me teletransporto pra outro planeta)
Yea, this is definitely going into my midnight ride playlist.
You have a playlist to ride bike at midnight too? feeling embraced here.
@Marco Antônio Franco de Matos sadly i dont
@Buu Ree oh, ok so...
This is a fucking masterpiece. Doesn't have the recognition it should have.
Just listened to DHL and came back to this. I likey dis one
Best of All 51area
Muito boa eeemm
The lyrics remind me so much of Beyonce and the Weeknd's 6 inch
8:48 John Mayer
4:12 for me sounds like area of my life 2009 - 2014 , with Coil background something or Deadmau5 etc, etc.
''Pyramids'' is specific track, so much work put into this1. Frank Ocean going hardly, s/o to him & producers.
''Channel Orange'' is fucking amazing.
Man, I luv frank
awesome..........tune
awesome guitar cliff
This is so much more than a song, it's a indulgent experience!
Liz it’s a visual experience without any visuals
indulgent experience
self-indulgent is almost always a bad thing. and u're not indulging in the song for ur sake only, u're sharing in the artist's vision, so its not exactly self-indulgent
@Lou Schwick you're right:p
The jewel
When that beat changes I go back to Big Sur in California, I'm from belgium but this song hits a VERY strong cord in my heart! Never forget Big Sur, people born in California have no idea how blessed they are!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
John Mayer's solo was the goat why is it not included?
💖💃💃
Still can’t get over this song
The greatest song of all time
Absolute classic

Early Frank and Early Weeknd.....unbelievably great composers! Songwriters! Mood Changers! Memory Makers!

@Vladimir Makarov im talking Mixtape era, both made absolutely game changing music imo
Best Song of the 21century !
Frank ocean did the most here, like my 10 minutes was completely worth it🔥🔥🔥got this song on repeat, my favorite frank ocean track by far 🕺🏾🕺🏾
One of the greatest songs of all time
This is ART!!
ouça depois de um beck
Top sex selvagem
I’m sorry but I don’t see what’s so great about this song. I see a lot of comments here calling it the best song of all time and after giving it a thorough listen I can’t seem to understand what people love about it. I’d love someone to enlighten me lol
rap genius the song. trust me you will not be disappointed...
Lincoln Valavala I’ll do that thanks, if I remember il let you know if my opinion changed lol
It's the nostalgia and emotions attached, that make songs like these so perfect.. especially from Frank
I never knew the part before 4:50
Will this one not get blocked finally?
Better than better.
The synthesizers on the 2nd minute are simply amazing. This rollercoasting synthesizer melody is just... aaaaahhh, fuck, I don't know how to describe this perfection.

almost as good as his feature in
Crandamer - Balmain Club
“Frank Ocean has always been one of the smarter artists in music and I think this song is a great representation of his geniusness. Perhaps I’m reading waaay too much into the lyrics and content of "Pyramids”, but I think that Frank Ocean is singing about the transformation of the Black woman from the earliest of civilization to today. Cleopatra is the symbol of beauty, independence, and a Queen, she also happened to Black and Frank starts the song off by alarming his listeners that “There’s a thief out on the move/Underneath our legion’s view/They have taken Cleopatra”. He then pleads that bring back the respectable Black woman while saying “Run run run, come back for my glory/Bring her back to me/Run run run, the crown of our pharaoh/The throne of our queen is empty.” The song then takes an interesting shift in tempo and the darker beat matches Frank’s lyric content as he talks about a stripper who he epitomizes as the modern day Black woman. “The Pyramid” is the joint where this stripper works and where Frank pimps out this girl to “hit the strip & my bills paid, keep a nigga bills paid.” Nevertheless, Frank really gave a strong content output in this song and indirectly begs for the respectable Black woman back while keeping up with the difficult Cleopatra theme. However, it should be noted that Cleopatra was not buried in one of the pyramids because that type of burial was way before her time. Again, if I got this completely wrong, then oh well, but this is what I think when I listen to this new track."
