andrew lloyd webber & tim rice - potiphar lyrics
[narrator]
joseph was taken to egypt in chains and sold
where he was bought by a captain named potiphar
[narrator]
potiphar had very few cares
he was one of egypt’s millionaires
having made a fortune buying shares in
[potiphar]
pyramids
[narrator]
potiphar had made a huge pile
owned a large percentage of the nile
[potiphar]
meant that i could really live in style
[narrator]
and he did
[potiphar]
oh, i did
[narrator]
joseph was an unimportant slave who found he liked his master
consequently worked much harder, even with devotion
potiphar could see that josеph was a cut above the av’rage
madе him leader of his household, maximum promotion
[narrator]
potiphar was cool and so fine
[potiphar]
but my wife would never toe the line
[narrator & male ensemble]
it’s all there in chapter thirty+nine of genesis
she was beautiful but
[mrs. potiphar]
evil
[narrator]
saw a lot of men against his will
he would have to tell her that she still was his
[potiphar]
you’re mine!
[narrator]
joseph’s looks and handsome figure had attracted her attention
every morning she would beckon:
[mrs. potiphar]
come and lie with me, love
[narrator]
joseph wanted to resist her till one day she proved too eager
joseph cried in vain:
[joseph]
please stop! i don’t believe in free love!
[mrs. potiphar]
pity
[narrator, (potiphar)]
potiphar was counting shekels in his den below the bedroom
when he heard a mighty rumpus clattering above him
suddenly he knew his riches couldn’t buy him what he wanted
gold would never make him happy, if she didn’t love him!
letting out a mighty roar (aah!)
potiphar burst through the door (aah!)
[potiphar]
joseph, i’ll see you rot in jail
the things you have done are beyond the pale!
[narrator]
poor, poor joseph locked up in a cell
things ain’t going well, hey, locked up in a cell
poor, poor joseph locked up in a cell
things ain’t going well, hey, locked up in a cell
locked up in a cell
