STONE THE CROWS Lyrics

Erzählerin:

Pharaoh said -

Pharaoh:

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?

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

Erzählerin & Frauen:

Pharaoh told his guards to fetch

A chisel from the local store

Whereupon he ordered them

To cut the chains that Joseph wore

Joseph got a royal pardon

And a host of splendid things

A chariot of gold, a cloak,

A medal and some signet rings

Joseph -

Pharaoh's number two

Joseph -

Egypt looks to you

Joseph & Erzählerin & Frauen:

Joseph -

Pharaoh's number two

Joseph -

Egypt looks to you

Erzählerin & Frauen:

Seven summers on the trot

Were perfect just as Joseph said

Joseph saw that food was gathered

Ready for the years ahead

Seven years of famine followed

Egypt didn't mind a bit

The first recorded rationing Joseph Musical - STONE THE CROWS - http://motolyrics.com/joseph-musical/stone-the-crows-lyrics.html

In history was a hit

Frauen:

Joseph how can we ever say

All that we want to about you

We're so glad that you came our way

We would habe perished without you

Pharaoh:

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

Frauen:

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

Pharaoh:

We were in a jam

Would have baffled Abraham

But bow we're partnership

It's just a piece of cake

Frauen:

Greatest man since Noah

Only goes to shoah

Joseph:

Anyone from anywhere can make it

If they get a lucky break

Erzählerin & Frauen & Joseph:

This could be a happy ending,

Perfect place to stop the show

Joseph after all has gone

About as far as he can go

But I'm sure that Jacob and

His other sons have crossed your mind

How had famine hit the family

Joseph left behind?
