YOU SING THE HITS
INarratorJ
Guess what?
In his bed Pharaoh

Had an uneasy night
He had had a dream
That pinned him

To his sheets with fright

No one knew

The meaning of the dream
What to do,
Whatever could it mean?
INarratorl Pharaoh said
IPharaohl

Well fetch this Joseph man,
I need him to help me

Ifhe can
INarrator and Ensemblel
Poor, poor Pharaoh
What'cha gonna do

Dreams are haunting you

Hey What'cha gonna do I
INarratorl

Chained and bound, afraid, alone

Joseph stood before the throne
IJosephl
My service to Pharaoh

Has begun

Tell me your problems
Mighty one
Pharaoh and Ensemblel

Well welcome to Egypt land

Joseph
Well I was wandering along

By the banks of the river
When seven fat cows
Came up out of the Nile, uh-huh
Oh, yeah
And right behind
These fine healthy animals came
Seven other cows, skinny and vile
Uh-huh
Oh, yeah
Well the thin cows

Ate the fat cows

Which I thought
Would do them good
Uh-huh
Well, it didn't make them fatter
Like I thought a

Monster supper should
Well the thin cows

Were as thin

As they had ever

Ever, ever been
Well this dream
Has got me baffled

Hey, Joseph, what does it mean?
Now you know
That kings ain't stupid
But I don't have a clue

So don't ya be cruel now Joseph

Help me now I beg of you
Well I was standing
Doing nothing
In a field out oftown

When I saw seven a beautiful

Ears of corn, uh-huh, oh yeah
They were ripe, they were golden
And you've guessed it
Right behind them there were
Seven other ears

Tattered and torn, uh-huh oh yeah
Well the bad corn
Ate the good corn

They came up from behind
Yes they did
Well Joseph here's the punch line
It's really gonna blow your mind
Baby, blow your lid
Well the bad corn was as bad

As it had ever, ever ever been
Well this dream has got me

All shook up, so treat me nice

And tell me what it means
Hey, hey, Joseph

Won't you please tell old Pharaoh

What does this mean?
Oh yeah
IJosephl
Now, I understand

The part about the cows, but

I'm not quite sure about the corn
Could you explain that to me

One more time

Mr. Pharaoh man?
IPharaohl
Hey, Joseph

Won't you please tell old Pharaoh

What does this mean?
Oh, yeah
