Song Of The King (seven Fat Cows) Lyrics - Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (1992 Canadian Cast) - Tim Rice

(Pharaoh) 

Well I was wandering along by the banks of the river 

When seven fat cows came up out of the Nile, uh-huh 

And right behind these fine healthy animals came 

Seven other cows, skinny and vile, uh-huh 

Well the thin cows ate the fat cows which I 

Thought would do them good, uh-huh 

But it didn't make them fatter like such 

A monster supper should 

Well the thin cows were as thin 

as they had ever, ever, ever been 

Well this dream has got me baffled 

Hey, Joseph, won't you tell me what it means? 

Well you know that kings ain't stupid 

But I don't have a clue 

So don't be cruel Joseph 

Help me, I beg of you! 

Well, I was standing doing nothing in a field out of town 

When I saw seven beautiful ears of corn, uh-huh 

They were ripe, they were golden and 

You've guessed it, right behind them came seven other ears 

Tattered and torn, uh-huh 

Well the bad corn ate the good corn 

They came up from behind yes they did 

Now Joseph here's the punch line 

It's really gonna blow your mind 

Well the bad corn was as bad 

as it had ever, ever, ever been 

Well this dream has got me all shook up 

Treat me nice and tell me what it means 

Hey, hey, hey Joseph 

Won't you tell poor old Pharaoh 

What does this crazy dream mean? 

Oh yeah!
