Joseph - Stone The Crowes lyrics

rate me

(Narrator)<br />

Pharaoh said<br />

<br />

(Pharaoh)<br />

Well stone the crows<br />

This Joseph is a clever kid<br />

Who'd have thought that fourteen cows<br />

Could mean the things he said they did?<br />

<br />

Joseph, you must help me further<br />

I have got a job for you<br />

You shall lead you through this crisis<br />

You shall be my number two<br />

<br />

(Narrator & Female Ensemble)<br />

Pharaoh told his guards to fetch<br />

A chisel form the local store<br />

Whereupon he ordered them<br />

To cut the chains that Joseph wore<br />

<br />

Joseph got a royal pardon<br />

And a host of splendid things<br />

A chariot of gold, a cloak<br />

A medal and some signet rings<br />

<br />

Joseph-<br />

Pharaoh's number two<br />

Joseph-<br />

Egypt looks to you<br />

<br />

(Joseph, Narrator & Female Ensemble)<br />

Joseph-<br />

Pharaoh's number two<br />

Joseph-<br />

Egypt looks to you<br />

<br />

(Narrator & Female Ensemble)<br />

Seven summers on the trot<br />

Were perfect just as joseph said<br />

Joseph saw that food was gathered<br />

Ready for the years ahead<br />

Seven years of famine followed<br />

Egypt didn't mind a bit<br />

The first recorded rationing<br />

In history was a hit<br />

<br />

(Female Ensemble)<br />

Joseph how can we ever say<br />

All that we want to about you<br />

We're so glad that you came our way<br />

We would have perished without you<br />

<br />

(Pharaoh)<br />

Joseph we are the perfect team<br />

Old buddies, that's you and me<br />

I was wise to have chosen you<br />

You'll be wise to agree<br />

<br />

(Female Ensemble)<br />

Joseph how can we ever say<br />

All that we want to about you<br />

We're so glad that you came our way<br />

We would have perished without you<br />

<br />

(Pharaoh)<br />

We were in a jam<br />

Would have baffled Abraham<br />

But now we're a partnership<br />

It's just a piece of cake<br />

<br />

(Female Ensemble)<br />

Greatest man since Noah<br />

Only goes to shoah<br />

<br />

(Joseph)<br />

Anyone from anywhere can make it<br />

If they get a lucky break<br />

<br />

(Narrator & Female Ensemble)<br />

This could be a happy ending<br />

Perfect place to stop the show<br />

Joseph after all has gone<br />

About as far as he can go<br />

<br />

But I'm sure that Jacob and<br />

His other sons have crossed your mind<br />

How had famine hit the family<br />

Joseph left behind?
