Curb Your Doggerel #3

[billroper]

Here's another for the children's poetry collection to go with Uncle Fred and Zombies!:

I think we're all done having fun.
Mummy's coming -- better run!
Not the mummy that we know
Bandage-wrapped from head to toe.
He was an Egyptian pharaoh
Buried in a coffin narrow
Deep within a treasure room
In pyramid, a pharaoh's tomb.
Robbers came, some bad, some worse
And released the Pharaoh's curse.
They opened the sarcophagus.
So why's the mummy chasing us?

Heh, heh!

(A tall, lean, pedantic chap -- with unruly light-colored hair, a great many pockets overflowing with markers, pens, and slips of paper, and a striped scarf that brushes the floor at both ends -- approaches thnidu and asks to take over the keyboard for a few moments.)
Oddly enough, it's spelled "pharAOh": pharaoh. And there's an adjective, "pharaonic", this one pronounced about it looks, "fair-ay-ON-ik", so if you can remember that, you can use it to remember the noun.

Fixed, thanks. :)
