rate me<br>
Narrator <br>
<br>
Joseph was taken to Egypt in chains and sold,<br>
Where he was bought by a captain named by Potiphar <br>
Narrator & Male Ensemble <br>
<br>
Potiphar had very few cares<br>
He was one of Egypt millionaires<br>
Having made a fortune buying shares in <br>
Potiphar <br>
<br>
Pyramids <br>
Narrator & Male Ensemble <br>
<br>
Potiphar had made a huge pile<br>
Owned a large percentage of the Nile <br>
Potiphar <br>
<br>
Meant that I could really live in style <br>
Narrator & Male Ensemble <br>
<br>
And he did <br>
Narrator <br>
<br>
Joseph was an unimportant<br>
Slave who found he liked his master<br>
Consequently worked much harder<br>
Even with devotion <br>
Potiphar could see tha Joseph<br>
Was a cut above the average<br>
Made him leader of his household<br>
Maximum promotion <br>
<br>
Narrator & Male Ensemble <br>
<br>
Potiphar was cool and so fine <br>
Potiphar <br>
<br>
But my wife would never toe the line <br>
Narrator & Male Ensemble <br>
<br>
It's all there in chapter thirty-nine<br>
Of Genesis <br>
She was beautiful but <br>
<br>
Mrs. Potiphar <br>
<br>
Evil <br>
Narrator & Male Ensemble <br>
<br>
Saw a lot of men against his will<br>
He could have to tell he that she still<br>
Was his <br>
Narrator <br>
<br>
Joseph's looks and handsome figure<br>
Had attracted her attention<br>
Every morning she would beckon <br>
Mrs. Potiphar <br>
<br>
Come and lie with me love <br>
Narrator <br>
<br>
Joseph wanted to resist her,<br>
Till one day she proved too eager<br>
Joseph cried in vain <br>
Joseph <br>
<br>
Please stop<br>
I don't believe in free love <br>
Narrator <br>
<br>
Potiphar was counting sheckels<br>
In his den below the bedroom<br>
When he heard a mighty rumpus<br>
Clattering above him <br>
Suddenly he knew his riches<br>
Couldn't buy him what he wanted<br>
Gold would never make him happy<br>
If she didn't love him <br>
<br>
Narrator, Ensemble & Children <br>
<br>
Letting out a mighty roar<br>
Potiphar burst through the door <br>
Potiphar <br>
<br>
Joseph, I'll see you rot in jail<br>
The things that you have done are beyond the pale <br>
Narrator, Ensemble & Children <br>
<br>
Poor, poor Joseph, locked up in a cell<br>
Things ain't going well, hey, locked up in a cell<br>
Poor, poor Joseph, locked up in a cell<br>
Things ain't going well, hey, locked up in a cell<br>
Locked up in a cell<br>
<br>
