So back in Canaan the future looked rough

Joseph's family were finding it tough

For the famine has caught us unprepared

We are thin we are ill we are getting scared

It's enough to make anyone weep

We are down to our very last sheep

We will starve if we hang around here

And in Egypt there's food going spare

They've got corn they've got meat

they've got food and drinks

And if we have the time

we could see the Sphinx

So they finally decided to go

Off to Egypt to see brother Jo

And they all lay before Joseph's feet

Mighty prince give us something to eat

Joseph found it a strain

not to laugh because

Not a brother among them

knew who he was

I shall now take them all for a ride

After all they have tried fratricide

I dreamed that in the fields one day

the corn gave me a sign

Your eleven sheaves of corn

all turned and bowed to mine

I dreamed I saw eleven stars

the sun and moon and sky

Bowing down before my star

and now I realize why

How do I know where you come from

you could be spies

Telling me that you are hungry

that could be lies

How do I know who you are

Why do you think

I should help you would you help me

Why on earth should

I believe you I've no guarantee

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl

Grovel grovel cringe bow stoop fall

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl

We are just eleven

brothers good men and true

Though we know

we count for nothing when up next to you

Honesty's our middle name

Life is slowly ebbing

from us hope's almost gone

It's getting very hard

to see us from sideways on

Grovel cringe bow stoop fall

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl

I rather like the way

you're talking astute and sincere

Suddenly your tragic story

gets me right here

This is what we hoped you'd say

All this tugging at

my heartstrings seems quite justified

I shall give you what

you came for and lots more beside

Thank you thank you cringe bow stoop fall

Worship worship beg kneel sponge crawl

Joseph handed them Sackloads of food

And they grovelled with base gratitude

Then unseen

Joseph nipped out around the back

And planted a cup

in young Benjamin's sack

When the brothers were ready to go

Joseph turned to them all

with a terrible stare and said

No no no no no
