The Brothers Come To Egypt / Grovel, Grovel - Andrew Lloyd Webber (安德鲁·劳埃德·韦伯)/Peter Reeves/Gary Bond/Riggs O’Hara

Written by:Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice

Producer:Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice

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

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
