Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pharaoh said
Well, stone the crows
This Joseph is a clever kid
Who'd have thought that fourteen cows
Could mean the things he said they did?
[Verse 2]
Joseph, you must help me further
I have got a job for you
You shall lead us through this crisis
You shall be my number two
[Verse 3]
Pharaoh told his guards
To fetch a chisel from the local store
Whereupon he ordered them
To cut the chains that Joseph wore
[Verse 4]
Joseph got a royal pardon
And a host of splendid things
A chariot of gold, a cloak
A medal and some signet rings
[Verse 5]
Joseph, Pharaoh's number two
Joseph, Egypt looks to you
Joseph, Pharaoh's number two
Joseph, Egypt looks to you
Joseph
[Verse 6]
Seven summers on the trot
Went perfect just as Joseph said
Joseph saw that food was gathered
Ready for the years ahead
[Verse 7]
Seven years of famine followed
Egypt didn't mind a bit
The first recorded rationing
In history was a hit
[Verse 8]
Joseph, how can we ever say
All that we want to about you?
We're so glad that you came our way
We would have perished without you
[Verse 9]
Joseph, we are the perfect team
Old buddies, that's you and me
I was wise to have chosen you
You'll be wise to agree
[Verse 10]
Joseph, how can we ever say
All that we want to about you?
We're so glad that you came our way
We would have perished without you
[Verse 11]
We were in a jam
Would have baffled Abraham
But now we're a partnership
It's just a piece of cake
[Verse 12]
Greatest man since Noah
Only goes to show-a
Anyone from anywhere can make it
If they get a lucky break
[Verse 13]
This could be a happy ending
Perfect place to stop the show
Joseph, after all, has gone
About as far as he can go
[Verse 14]
But I'm sure that Jacob
And his other sons have crossed your mind
How had famine hit the family
Joseph left behind?
