INarrato r1

Way way back

Many centuries ago

Not long afier
The Bible began
Jacob lived

In the land of Canaan

A fine example of a family man
Jacob, Jacob and sons

Depended on farming

To earn their keep
Jacob, Jacob and sons

Spent all of their days

In the fields with sheep
Jacob was the founder

Of a whole new nation

Thanks to the number
Of children he'd had
He was also known as Israel

But most ofthe time

His sons and his wives
Used to call him Dad
Jacob, Jacob and sons

Men ofthe soil
Ofthe sheaf and crook
Jacob, Jacob and sons

A remarkable family

In anyone's book
With Simeon and Levi

The next in line

Napthali and lsaachar
With Asher and Dan
Jacob, Jacob and sons

Benjamin and Judah

Which leaves only one
Jacob, Jacob and sons

Joseph, Jacob's favourite son
Jacob, Jacob and sons

Jacob, Jacob and sons

Jacob, Jacob and sons
Jacob Jacob

Jacob, Jacob and sons
IJ acobl

Joseph's mother

She was quite my favourite wife

I never really loved
Another all my life
Joseph was myjoy

Because he reminded
Me of her
It made the rest

Feel second best

And even ifthey were
IBrothersl

Being told we're also rans

Does not make us Joseph fans
INarratorl

Joseph's charm

And winning smile

Failed to slay them in the aisle
And their father
Couldn't see the danger
He could not imagine any danger
He just saw with Joseph

All his dreams come true
Jacob wanted to show
The world he loved his son

To make it clear that Joseph

Was the special one
So Jacob bought his son a coat,

A multi-coloured coat to wear
Brothers and Female Ensemblel
Joseph's coat was elegant
The cut was fine,

The tasteful style was the

Ultimate in good design
And this is why it caught the eye

A king would stop and stare
INarratorl

In a class above the rest

It even went well with his vest
Such a stunning coat

Of many colours
How he loved his coat

Of many colours
It was red and yellow

And green and brown and blue
His astounding clothing
Took the biscuit
(Brothersl

Quite the smoothest person
In the district
IJosephl

I look handsome, I look smart

I am a walking work of art
Such a dazzling coat

Of many colours
How I love my coat

Of many colours
IAL L1
It was red and yellow
And green and brown

And scarlet and black

And ochre and peach

And ruby and olive
And russet and grey

And purple and white

And pink and orange and blue
