(Narrator)<br />
So back in Canaan the future looked rough<br />
Jacob's family were finding it tough<br />
<br />
(Brothers)<br />
For the famine has caught us unprepared<br />
We are thin<br />
We are ill<br />
We are getting scared<br />
It's enough to make anyone weep<br />
We are down to our very last sheep<br />
<br />
(Reuben)<br />
We will starve if we hang around here<br />
<br />
(Zebulon)<br />
But in Egypt there's food going spare<br />
<br />
(Asher)<br />
They've got corn<br />
They've got meat<br />
They've got fruit and drinks<br />
<br />
(Dan)<br />
And if we have the time<br />
We could see the Sphinx<br />
<br />
(Narrator)<br />
So they finally decided to go<br />
Off to Egypt to see brother Jo<br />
<br />
So they all lay before Joseph's feet<br />
<br />
(Brothers)<br />
Mighty prince, give us something to eat<br />
<br />
(Narrator)<br />
Joseph found it a strain<br />
Not to laugh because<br />
Not a brother among them<br />
Knew who he was<br />
<br />
(Joseph)<br />
I shall now take them all for a ride<br />
After all they have tried fratricide
