Andrew Lloyd Webber & Tim Rice - Stone The Crows lyrics

(Narrator) 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 (Narrator) 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 (Joseph) Pharaoh's number two (Pharaoh's number two) Joseph (Joseph) Egypt looks to you (Egypt looks to you) Joseph (Joseph) Pharaoh's number two (Pharaoh's number two) Joseph (Joseph) Egypt looks to you (Egypt looks to you) Joseph! Seven summers on the trot went perfect just as Joseph said Joseph saw that food was gathered ready for the years ahead Seven years of famine followed, Egypt did not mind a bit The first recorded rationing in history was a hit (Girls (Brooklyn style) 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) Joseph we are the perfect team Old buddies that's you and me I was wise to have chosen you You'd be wise to agree (Girls) 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 now we're a partnership It's just a piece of cake (Girls) Greatest man since Noah Only goes to shoah (Joseph) Anyone from anywhere can make it If they get a lucky break (Narrator) This could be a happy ending, perfect place to stop the show Joseph after all has got about as far as he could go But I'm sure that Jacob and his other sons have crossed your mind How did famine hit the family Joseph left behind?
