Someone already came up with this idea: A few months ago, while shopping at a local 24-hour supermarket, I heard this song being played on the store-wide radio. It took me a little while to realize that I was misunderstanding the lyrics and that I only thought it was "Walk Like an Egyptian;" it really was "Walk With an Erection." It may have been a Wierd Al takeoff... I don't know for sure, and I've never heard it again. -- Nathan Glasser nathan@mit-eddie.uucp (usenet) fnord nathan@xx.lcs.mit.edu (arpa) "A tribble is the only love that money can buy."
