Testo Potiphar - Andrew Lloyd Webber feat. "Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" 1991 London Cast, Jason Donovan & Linzi Hateley
Testo della canzone Potiphar (Andrew Lloyd Webber feat. "Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" 1991 London Cast, Jason Donovan & Linzi Hateley), tratta dall'album Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
Joseph was taken to Egypt in chains and sold
Where he was bought by a captain named Potiphar
Potiphar had very few cares
He was one of Egypt's millionaires
Having made a fortune buying shares in
(Pyramids)
Potiphar had made a huge pile
Owned a large percentage of the Nile
(Meant that I could really live in style)
And he did
(Oh, I did)
Joseph was an unimportant
Slave who found he liked his master
Consequently worked much harder
Even with devotion
Potiphar could see that Joseph
Was a cut above the average
Made him leader of his household
Maximum promotion!
Potiphar was cool and so fine
(But my wife would never tow the line)
It's all there in chapter thirty-nine
Of Genesis
(Don't believe everything you read, dear)
She was beautiful but
(Evil)
Saw a lot of men against his will
He would have to tell her that she still was his
(You're mine)
Joseph's looks and handsome figure
Had attracted her attention
Every morning she would beckon
"Come and lie with me, love"
Joseph wanted to resist her
'Til one day she proved too eager
Joseph cried in vain
"Please stop, I don't believe in free love!"
(Pity)
Potiphar was counting shekels
In his den below the bedroom
When he heard a mighty rumpus
Clattering above him
Suddenly he knew his riches
Couldn't buy him what he wanted
Gold would never make him happy
If she didn't love him
Letting out a mighty roar
Potiphar burst through the door
(Joseph, I'll see you rot in jail)
(The things you have done are beyond the pale)
Poor, poor Joseph
Locked up in a cell
Things ain't going well, hey
Locked up in a cell
Poor, poor Joseph
Locked up in a cell
Things ain't going well, hey
Locked up in a cell
Locked up in a cell
