Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Rela - The Brothers Come To Egypt lyrics

rate me

Narrator

So back in Canaan the future looked rough

Jacob's family were finding it tough

Brothers

For the famine has caught us unprepared

We are thin

We are ill

We are getting scared

It's enough to make anyone weep

We are down to our very last sheep

Reuben

We will starve if we hang around here

Zebulun

But in Egypt there's food going spare

Asher

They've got corn

They've got meat

They've got fruit and drinks

Dan

And if we have the time

We could see the Sphinx

Narrator

So they finally decided to go

Off to Egypt to see brother Jo

So they all lay before

Joseph's feet

Brothers

Mighty prince, give us something to eat

Narrator

Joseph found it a strain

Not to laugh because

Not a brother among them

Knew who he was

Joseph

I shall now take them all for a ride

After all they have tried fratricide
