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

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

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

We are thin we are ill we are getting scared[00:00:11]

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]

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

They've got corn they've got meat they've got food and drinks[00:00:30]

And if we have the time we could see the Sphinx[00:00:33]

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

Off to Egypt to see brother Jo[00:00:41]

And they all lay before Joseph's feet[00:00:45]

Mighty prince give us something to eat[00:00:48]

Joseph found it a strain not to laugh because[00:00:52]

Not a brother among them knew who he was[00:00:56]

I shall now take them all for a ride[00:00:59]

After all they have tried fratricide[00:01:03]

I dreamed that in the fields one day the corn gave me a sign[00:01:08]

Your eleven sheaves of corn all turned and bowed to mine[00:01:16]

I dreamed I saw eleven stars the sun and moon and sky[00:01:23]

Bowing down before my star and now I realize why[00:01:31]

How do I know where you come from you could be spies[00:01:40]

Telling me that you are hungry that could be lies[00:01:46]

How do I know who you are[00:01:53]

Why do you think I should help you would you help me[00:01:58]

Why on earth should I believe you I've no guarantee[00:02:04]

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall[00:02:09]

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl[00:02:15]

We are just eleven brothers good men and true[00:02:22]

Though we know we count for nothing when up next to you[00:02:28]

Honesty's our middle name[00:02:35]

Life is slowly ebbing from us hope's almost gone[00:02:40]

It's getting very hard to see us from sideways on[00:02:46]

Grovel cringe bow stoop fall[00:02:53]

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl[00:02:57]

I rather like the way you're talking astute and sincere[00:03:04]

Suddenly your tragic story gets me right here[00:03:10]

This is what we hoped you'd say[00:03:17]

All this tugging at my heartstrings seems quite justified[00:03:22]

I shall give you what you came for and lots more beside[00:03:28]

Thank you thank you cringe bow stoop fall[00:03:33]

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl[00:03:39]

Joseph handed them Sackloads of food[00:03:45]

And they grovelled with base gratitude[00:03:49]

Then unseen Joseph nipped out around the back[00:03:52]

And planted a cup in young Benjamin's sack[00:03:56]

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

Joseph turned to them all with a terrible stare and said[00:04:04]

No no no no no[00:04:08]
