Bought by the Egyptians

Lyrics

Now the Amazing Technicolor Coat's a fantastic Broadway show
 If a movie's made (Oy vey oh)
 It'd prob'ly sound quite phenomenal
 All because a man's brothers sold him, got the money and off they went
 Was a cocky child (Oy vey oh)
 But that still seems inconsiderate
 Going twice for a marked-up price, say
 (Way oy vey oy vey oy vey oh)
 Bought by the Egyptians
 ♪
 A bondslave was his fate there
 Trained and then he found entry jobs galore
 Paid lotsa dues (Oy vey oh)
 But kept his dreams and he praised the Lord
 All the girls dig Joseph's good
 looks he's quite the hunk and a better man
 But because of these (Oy vey oh)
 His boss's wife canned him in the end
 Throw that slave in the darkest place, hey
 (Way oy vey oy vey oy vey oh)
 Caught by the Egyptians
 LEAD
 ♪
 (Whistle)
 ♪
 While the Pharaoh's asleep
 Dreams go bad, he gets alarmed, and he tells his staff
 I've got to know (Oy vey oh)
 Just why did those scrawny cattle attack?
 If you want the guy for the job he's hangin' out in the dungeon block
 Yes, bring him hence (Oy vey oh)
 To swiftly come to sit down and talk
 All this happened in Egypt and yet their smartest boy was an immigrant
 That guy named Joe (Oy vey oh)
 He taught the bright, wise Egyptians
 So they got him a real nice job with
 Pharaoh, Pharaoh, Pharaoh, Pharaoh
 Sought by the Egyptians
 Sought by the Egyptians
