They have taken Cleopatra 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 We'll run to the future, shining like diamonds In a rocky world, rocky-rocky world Our skin like bronze and our hair like cashmere As we march to rhythm on the palace floor Chandeliers inside the pyramid, Tremble from the force Cymbals crash inside the pyramid, Voices fill up the halls Oh oh oh ooh.

Pyramids in ancient Egypt were pointing skyward to the heavens, the divine, the sun. working one's way up to the divine, the top of the pyramid. It also sounds sometimes like the chorus is saying 'working up the pyramid tonight', possibly referencing Kabbalah again, i.e. Ocean also looks to be alternately horrified at the scene and laughing with glee at the strippers shakin it. Also see the alternately beautiful and disfigured faces of the strippers at the club. Usually this includes some sort of trying to reunite the male and female aspects of God and oneself, again connecting with the evident male/female dichotomy of the song. We long to have crazy meaningful experiences like when the guitar solo comes on and Ocean sees the major symbol of Kabbalah, which has different meanings, but is almost always a type of Jewish mystical map of humanity's path up to the divine. We're all trying to drown ourselves in absinthe (known to cause hallucinations, but it's a myth) and sex and violence and fancy motorcycles and champagne and fancy jazz music and money but we're all still longing for more.
