Cairo

Well, let me tell you about my girlie
She goes by the name of Sleepy Shirley
She become a real life wiro
Since she learned how to do the Cairo
And she go
Up up down down
Up up down down
She pours out the sand on the kitchen floor
Then we start to camel through the living room door
She was cool to me, but now her heart's afiro
Since she learned how to do the Cairo
And she go
