The Brothers Came To Egypt / Grovel, Grovel - London Palladium Cast Recording[00:00:00]

Written by：Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice[00:00:00]

So back in Canaan the future looked rough[00:00:00]

Jacob's family were finding it tough[00:00:04]

For the famine has caught us unprepared[00:00:07]

We are thin[00:00:11]

We are ill[00:00:12]

We are getting scared[00:00:13]

It's enough to make anyone weep[00:00:15]

We are down to our very last sheep[00:00:18]

We will starve if we hang around here[00:00:22]

But in Egypt there's food going spare[00:00:26]

They've got corn[00:00:29]

They've got meat[00:00:30]

They've got fruit and drinks[00:00:31]

And if we have the time[00:00:33]

We could see the sphinx[00:00:35]

So they finally decided to go[00:00:37]

Off to Egypt to see brother Joe[00:00:40]

So they all lay before[00:00:49]

Joseph's feet[00:00:51]

Mighty prince give us something to eat[00:00:53]

Joseph found it a strain[00:00:57]

Not to laugh because[00:00:58]

Not a brother among them[00:01:00]

Knew who he was[00:01:02]

I shall now take them all for a ride[00:01:04]

After all they have tried fratricide[00:01:07]

I dreamed that in the fields one day[00:01:14]

The corn gave me sign[00:01:17]

Your eleven sheaves of corn[00:01:21]

All turned and bowed to mine[00:01:24]

I dreamed I saw eleven stars[00:01:28]

The sun the moon and sky[00:01:31]

Bowing down before my star[00:01:35]

And now I realise why[00:01:38]

How do I know where you came from[00:01:43]

You could be spies[00:01:45]

Telling me that you are hungry[00:01:47]

That could be lies[00:01:49]

How do I know who you are[00:01:52]

Why do you think I should help you[00:01:56]

Would you help me[00:01:59]

Why on earth should I believe you[00:02:01]

I've no guarantee[00:02:03]

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall[00:02:05]

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl[00:02:09]

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall[00:02:14]

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl[00:02:18]

We are just eleven brothers[00:02:24]

Good men and true[00:02:26]

Though we know we count for nothing[00:02:28]

When up next to you[00:02:30]

Honesty's are middle name[00:02:33]

Life is slowly ebbing from us[00:02:37]

Hope's almost gone[00:02:40]

It's getting very hard to see us[00:02:42]

From sideways on[00:02:44]

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall[00:02:46]

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl[00:02:50]

I rather like the way you're talking[00:02:56]

Astute and sincere[00:02:58]

Suddenly your tragic story[00:03:00]

It gets me right here[00:03:03]

This is what we hoped he'd say[00:03:05]

All this tugging at my heartstrings[00:03:09]

Seems quite justified[00:03:11]

I shall give you what you came for[00:03:14]

And lots more beside[00:03:16]

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall[00:03:18]

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl[00:03:22]

Thank you thank you cringe bow stoop fall[00:03:26]

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl[00:03:31]

Joseph handed them sackloads of food[00:03:41]

And they grovelled with base gratitude[00:03:47]

Then unseen Joseph out around the back[00:03:53]

And planted a cup in young Benjamin's sack[00:04:00]

When the brothers were ready to go[00:04:08]

Joseph turned to them all[00:04:11]

With a terrible stare and said[00:04:13]

No no no no[00:04:16]
