Released 1949 Track 3 of 33 on the album "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes [Disc 1]" (2012) [Intro] A7 D A7 [Verse 1]
  D                              A7
I thought the only pyramids were in a foreign land

                                 D
Where treasures are aplenty with riches rare and grand

                   D7           G           G7
But here we have a pyramid that really is a honey

   A7                                          D
To join, you pay a dollar and you win a lot of money
[Chorus 1]
         D                   A7
It's the Pyramid Club that I joined

                                      D
I thought that I could make some easy coin

                           D7            G                G7
Over there, they call them mummies, over here, we're just dummies

   A7                     D
Us members of the Pyramid Club
[Verse 2]
  D                              A7
I found an unsuspecting pair and made them members too

                                  D
We had a great big party at which time, they paid their dues

                    D7              G                G7
This made me number two in line, my joy could not be spoken

    A7                                                 D
And I'd have won 10,000 bucks, but then, the chain was broken
[Chorus 2]
      D                     A7
After waiting through 3,000 names

                                     D
I thought that, at last, I'd won the game

                              D7              G              G7
But number one-five-six-three-two got mad and didn't pay his dues

     A7                  D    A7
So I lost in the Pyramid Club
[Accordion Solo] D A7 D D7 G G7 A7 D [Guitar Solo] D A7 D D7 G G7 A7 D A7 [Chorus 3]
         D                   A7
It's the Pyramid Club that I joined

                                      D
I thought that I could make some easy coin

                   D7         G                G7
The Egyptian mummy Siam is no nearer dead than I am

     A7                    D
As a member of the Pyramid Club
