Andrew Lloyd Webber - Potiphar lyrics

Your rating:

Joseph was taken to Egypt in chains and sold
 Where he was bought by a captain named Potiphar
 Narrator & MM
 Potiphar had very few cares
 He was one of Egypt's millionaires
 Having made a fortune buying shares in
 Potiphar
 Pyramids
 Narrator & MM
 Potiphar had made a huge pile
 Owned a large percentage of the Nile
 Potiphar
 Meant that I could really live in style
 Narrator & MM
 And he did
 Narrator
 Joseph was an unimportant
 Slave who found he liked his master
 Consequently worked much harder
 Even with devotion
 Poitphar could see that Joseph
 Was a cut above the average
 Made him leader of his household
 Maximum promotion
 Narrator & MM
 Potiphar was cool and so fine
 Potiphar
 But my wife would never toe the line
 Narrator & MM
 It's all there in chapter thirty-nine Of Genesis
 She was beautiful but
 Mrs. Potiphar
 Evil
 Narrator & MM
 Saw a lot of men against his will
 He would have to tell her that she still
 Was his
 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
 Narrator
 Potiphar was counting sheckels
 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
 Narrator, Ensemble & Children
 Letting out a mighty roar
 Potiphar burst through the door
 Potiphar
 Joseph, I'll see you rot in jail
 The things you have done are beyond the pale
 Narrator, Ensemble & Children
 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
