Potiphar

Potiphar - Original Broadway Cast of 'Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat'

Potiphar had very few cares

I was one of Egypt 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

Joseph was an unimportant

Slave who found he liked his master

Consequently worked much harder

Even with devotion

Babababababababababababababababa

Potiphar could see tha 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

Evil

Saw a lot of men against his will

He could have to tell he that she still

Was his

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

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 burst through the door

Joseph I'll see you rot in jail

The things that 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
