Brothers Come to Egypt / Who's the Thief [In the Style of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat ] (Karaoke Version Teaching Vocal) - Musical Creations Studio Musicians (Karaoke)

So back in canaan the future looked rough

Jacob's family were finding it tough

For the famine has caught us unprepared

We are thin

We are ill

We are getting scared

It's enough to make anyone weep

We are down to our very last sheep

We will starve if we hang around here

But in egypt there's food going spare

They've got corn

They've got meat

They've got fruit and drink

And if we have the time

We could see the sphinx

So they finally decided to go

Here we go

Off to egypt to see brother jo

So they all lay before

Joseph's feet

Mighty prince give us something to eat

Joseph found it a strain

Not to laugh because

Not a brother among them

Knew who he was

I shall now take them all for a ride

After all they have tried fratricide

I dreamed that in the fields one day

The corn gave me sign

Your eleven sheaves of corn

All turned and bowed to mine

I dreamed i saw eleven stars

The sun the moon and sky

Bowing down before my star

And now i realise why

How do i know where you come from

You could be spies

Telling me that you are hungry

That could be lies

How do i know who you are

Why do you think i should help you

Would you help me

Yes

Why on earth should i believe you

I've no guarantee

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl

We are just eleven brothers

Good men and true

Though we know we count for nothing

When up next to you

Honesty's are middle name

Life is slowly ebbing from us

Hope's almost gone

It's getting very hard to see us

From sideways on

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl

I rather like the way you're talking

Astute and sincere

Suddenly your tragic story

It gets me right here

This is what we hoped he'd say

All this tugging at my heartstrings

Seems quite justified

I shall give you what you came for

And lots more beside

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl

Thank you thank you cringe bow stoop fall

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl

Joseph handed them sackloads of food

And they grovelled with base gratitude

Then unseen joseph nipped out around the back

And planted a cup in young benjamin's sack

When the brothers were ready to go

Jospeh turned to them all

With a terrible stare and said

No no no no no

Stop you robbers

Your little number's up

One of you has stolen

My precious golden cup

Joseph started serching

Through his brothers sacks

Everyone was nervous

No one could relax

Who's the thief

Who's the thief

Who's the thief

Who's the thief

Is it reuben no

Is it simeon no

Is it naphtali no

Is it dan no

Is it asher no

Is it isaachar no

Is it levi no

Who's the man

Is it zebulun no

Is it gad no

Is it judah no

Is it him

No

Could it be could it be

Could it be could it be

Could it be could it be

Could i possibly be banjamin

Yes yes yes

Benjamin you nasty youth

Your crime has shocked me to the core

Never in my whole career

Have i encontered this before

Guards seize him lock him in a cell

Throw the key into the nile as well

Each of the brothers fell to his knees

Show him some mercy oh mighty one please

He would not do this he must have been framed

Jail us and beat us we should be blamed
