Poor Poor Joseph Lyrics
Narrator Nest day, far from home The brothers planned the repulsive
crime Brothers Let us grab him now Do him in, while we've got the
time Narrator This they did and made the most of it Tore his coat
and flung him in a pit Brothers Let us leave him here All alone and
he's bound to die Narrator Then some Ishmaelites A hairy crew came
riding by In a flash the brothers changed their plan Brothers We
need cash. Let's sell him if we can Narrator, Female Ensemble &
Children Poor, poor Joseph, what'cha gonna do? Things look bad for you,
hey, what'cha gonna do? Poor, poor Joseph, what'cha gonna do? Things
look bad for you, hey, what'cha gonna do? Brothers Could you use a
slave You hairy bunch of Ishmaelites Young, strong, well-behaved
Going cheap, and he reads and writes Narrator In a trice the dirty
deal was done Silver coins for Jacob's favorite son Then the
Ishmaelites Galloped off with the slave in tow Off to Egypt where
Joseph was not keen to go It wouldn't be a picnic he could tell
Joseph And I don't speak Egyptian very well Narrator Joseph's
brothers tore His precious multi-colored coat Having ripped it up
They next attacked a passing goat Soon the wretched creature was no
more They dipped his coat in blood and guts and gore Narrator, Ensemble
& Children Oh now brothers, how low can you stoop? You make a sordid
group, hey, how low can you stoop? Poor, poor Joseph, sold to be a slave
Situation's grave, hey, sold to be a slave Sold to be a slave
