The Mummy's Bracelet

Compositor: Jewellery

Last night at the museum, they're searching for a trace
Of the thief who stole the mummy's bracelet from its case
And now tonight the mummy's curse is on his thievin' head
For tonight the mummy's come to life, awakened from the dead

The thief who stole the mummy's bracelet gave it to his love
And now tonight she wears it, while the full Moon's up above
But as she dances in his arms, a chill is in her veins
She seems to hear the ghostly voice echo this refrain
Give me my bracelet back!

At last the dance is over, it's time to say goodnight
Her lover sees her to the door, she holds him very tight
She whispers please don't leave me, then upon the stairs
Their blood runs cold because they see the mummy standing there

The mummy, he stretched out his hand to take his bracelet back
And where his fingers touched the flesh it began to crack
And then before her lover's eyes she turned to stone
At least, that's what they told him when they took him to the home
