Potiphar 歌詞

Potiphar - Jimmy Serino Company

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

 

He 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

Poitphar 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 toe the line

 

It's all there in chapter thirty-nine

 

Of Genesis

 

She was beautiful but

 

Saw a lot of men against his will

 

He would have to tell her

That she still

Was his

Your 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

'Till one day she proved too eager

Joseph cried in vain

Please stop

I don't believe in free love

Pity

 

Potiphar was counting sheckels

 

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 ran 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
