Stone The Crows - Andrew Lloyd Webber, Jason Donovan, Linzi Hateley

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 you through this crisis

You shall be my number two

(Narrator &Female Ensemble)

Pharaoh told his guards to fetch

A chisel form 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, Narrator &Female Ensemble)

Joseph-

Pharaoh’s number two

Joseph-

Egypt looks to you

(Narrator &Female Ensemble)

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

In history was a hit

(Female Ensemble)

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’ll be wise to agree

(Female Ensemble)

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

(Female Ensemble)

Greatest man since Noah

Only goes to shoah

(Joseph)

Anyone from anywhere can make it If they get a lucky break

(Narrator &Female Ensemble)

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?
