NARRATOR:

Pharaoh, He Was A Powerful Man
With The Ancient World In The Palm Of His Hand
To All Intents And Purposes He
Was Egypt With A Capital E
Whatever He Did He Was Showered With Praise
If He Cracked A Joke Then You Chortled For Days
No-one Had Rights Or A Vote But The King
In Fact You Might Say He Was Fairly Right-wing
When Pharaoh's Around, Then You Get Down On The Ground
If You Ever Find Yourself Near Rameses -- Get Down On Your Knees

HANDMAIDENS:

A Pharaoh Story, A Pharaoh Story

NARRATOR:

Down At The Other End Of The Scale
Joseph Is Still Doing Time In Jail
For Even Though He Is In With The Guards
A Lifetime In Prison Seems Quite On The Cards
But If My Analysis Of The Position Is Right
At The End Of The Tunnel There's A Glimmer Of Light
For All Of A Sudden Indescribable Things
Have Shattered The Sleep Of Both Peasants And Kings
Strange As It Seems, There's Been A Run Of Crazy Dreams
And A Man Who Can Interpret Could Go Far -- Could Become A Star

HANDMAIDENS:

Could Be Famous, Could Be A Big Success

NARRATOR:

Could Be A Star!
