Let us grab him now

Do him in

While we've got the time
INarratorl
This they did
And made the most of it

Tore his coat and

Flung him in a pit
IBrothersl
Let us leave him here all alone
And he's bound to die

lNarratorl

When some lshmaelites
A hairy crew, came riding by

When some lshmaelites
Ilnstrumentall
In a flash

The brothers changed their plan

(Brothersl
We need cash

Let's sell him if we can

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?
IBrothersl

Could you use a slave

You hairy bunch of Ishmaelites?
INarratorl

In a trice the dirty deal was done
Silver coins

For Jacob's favourite son
Then the lshmaelites galloped off
With a slave in tow

Off to Egypt where Joseph

Was not keen to go
It wouldn't be a picnic

He could tell
IJosephl
And I don't speak
Egyptian very well
INarratorl
Joseph's brothers tore
His precious multi-coloured 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
IEnsemble, Narrator, Childrenl
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
