Joseph's mother, she was quite my favorite wife
 I never really loved another all my life
 And Joseph was my joy because
 He reminded me of her
 Narrator
 Through young Joseph, Jacob lived his youth again
 Loved him, praised him, gave him all he could, but then
 It made the rest feel second best
 And even if they were
 Brothers
 Being told we're also-rans
 Does not make us Joseph fans
 Narrator
 But where they had really missed the boat is
 Brothers
 We're great guys but no-one seems to notice
 Narrator
 Joseph's charm and winning smile
 Failed to slay them in the aisle
 And his father couldn't see the danger
 He could not imagine any danger
 He just saw in Joseph all his dreams come true
 Jacob wanted to show the world he loved his son
 To make it clear that Joseph was the special one
 So Jacob bought his son a coat
 A multi-colored coat to wear
 Brothers & Female Ensemble
 Joseph's coat was elegant
 The cut was fine
 The tasteful style was the
 Ultimate in good design
 And this is why it caught the eye
 A king would stop and stare
 Narrator
 And when Joseph tried it on
 He knew his sheepskin days were gone
 Narrator, Female Ensemble & Children
 Such a dazzling coat of many colors
 How he loved his coat of many colors
 Narrator
 In a class above the rest
 It even went well with his vest
 Such a stunning coat of many colors
 How he loved his coat of many colors
 It was red and yellow and green and
 Brown and blue
 Joseph's brothers weren't
 Too pleased with what they saw
 Brothers
 We had never liked him
 All that much before
 And now this coat
 Has got our goat
 We feel life is unfair
 Narrator, Female Ensemble & Children
 And when Joseph graced the scene
 His bothers turned a shade of green
 His astounding clothing took the biscuit
 Brothers
 Quite the smoothest person in the district
 Joseph & Female Ensemble
 I look handsome, I look smart
 I am a walking work of art
 Such a dazzling coat of many colors
 How I love my coat of many colors
 Narrator, Joseph, Ensemble & Children

 And ruby and olive and violet and fawn
 And lilac and gold and chocolate and mauve
 And cream and crimson and silver and rose
 And azure and lemon and russet and grey
