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?
