You are the girl
Somebody invented
In a grim little office
On Madison AVe.
They were specific,
They made you terrific:
Red lips,
Blue eyes,
Blond hair

  She's not real. She's the Madison Avenue concept of the perfect woman. The song is about advertising and media, not about women.
  To Album Refs
To Global Refs
They keep it as low
As they possibly can,
And sometimes they walk
Like an E-GYP-TIAN
Ah-ha-ha-ha-hah!
From: Charles Ulrich <culrich@pomona.edu>
  "Walk Like an Egyptian" was a hit for the Bangles (an all-female group) sometime in the 1980s.
From: chettri@kitune.ec.t.kanazawa-u.ac.jp (Deus Ex Machina)
  I suppose Zappa is parodying them. Also (this is far-fetched) in SLEEP DIRT (CD/ALBUM) we have a piece entitled "Regyptian Strut," which is nothing like "Walk like an Egyptian".
From: fnord@panix.com (Cliff Heller)
  "Walk like an Egyptian" very silly and thus very popular.
