《The Brothers Come to Egypt/Grovel， Grovel》歌词

[00:00:00] So back in Canaan the future looked rough

[00:00:04] Jacob's family were finding it tough

[00:00:07] Brothers

[00:00:08] For the famine has caught us unprepared

[00:00:11] We are thin

[00:00:12] We are ill

[00:00:13] We are getting scared

[00:00:15] It's enough to make anyone weep

[00:00:18] We are down to our very last sheep

[00:00:22] Reuben

[00:00:22] We will starve if we hang around here

[00:00:25] Zebulun

[00:00:26] But in Egypt there's food going spare

[00:00:29] Asher

[00:00:30] They've got corn

[00:00:30] They've got meat

[00:00:31] They've got fruit and drinks

[00:00:33] Dan

[00:00:33] And if we have the time

[00:00:35] We could see the Sphinx

[00:00:36] Narrator

[00:00:37] So they finally decided to go

[00:00:40] Off to Egypt to see brother Jo

[00:00:49] So they all lay before

[00:00:51] Joseph's feet

[00:00:53] Brothers

[00:00:53] Mighty prince give us something to eat

[00:00:55] Narrator

[00:00:56] Joseph found it a strain

[00:00:58] Not to laugh because

[00:01:00] Not a brother among them

[00:01:02] Knew who he was

[00:01:03] Joseph

[00:01:04] I shall now take them all for a ride

[00:01:07] After all they have tried fratricide

[00:01:13] I dreamed that in the fields one day

[00:01:17] The corn gave me sign

[00:01:21] Your eleven sheaves of corn

[00:01:24] All turned and bowed to mine

[00:01:28] I dreamed I saw eleven stars

[00:01:31] The sun the moon and sky

[00:01:35] Bowing down before my star

[00:01:38] And now I realise why

[00:01:43] How do I know where you came from

[00:01:45] You could be spies

[00:01:47] Telling me that you are hungry -

[00:01:49] That could be lies

[00:01:51] How do I know who you are

[00:01:56] Why do you think I should help you

[00:01:58] Would you help me

[00:02:01] Why on earth should I believe you

[00:02:03] I've no guarantee

[00:02:05] Narrator & Brothers

[00:02:22] We are just eleven brothers

[00:02:27] Though we know we count for nothing

[00:02:29] When up next to you

[00:02:31] Honesty's are middle name

[00:02:36] Life is slowly ebbing from us

[00:02:38] Hope's almost gone

[00:02:40] It's getting very hard to see us

[00:03:00] It gets me right here

[00:03:07] Jospeh
