Those Canaan Days Lyrics by Andrew Lloyd Webber, Tim Rice

Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat - Original Soundtrack Album (Original Cast Recording)

1999

[Simeon]
Do you remember the good years in Canaan?
The summers were endlessly gold
[Judah]
Mais oui!
[Simeon
The fields were a patchwork of clover
[Issachar]
All over!
[Simeon]
The winters were never too cold
We'd stroll down the boulevard together
A promenade simply divine
[Jacob]
Now the fields are dead and bare
No joie de vivre anywhere
Et maintеnant we drink a bitter wine
[All Brothers]
Thosе Canaan days we used to know
Where have they gone
Where did they go?
Eh bien, raise your berets
To those Canaan days
[Simeon]
Do you remember those wonderful parties?
[Asher]
Ooh la la!
[Simeon]
The splendor of Canaan's cuisine
Our extravagant, elegant soirés
The gayest the Bible has seen
It's funny, but, since we lost Joseph
We've gone to the other extreme
[Jacob]
No one comes to dinner now
[Simeon]
We'd only eat them anyhow
I even find I'm missing Joseph's dreams
[All Brothers]
Those Canaan days we used to know
Where have they gone, where did they go?
Eh bien, raise your berets
To those Canaan days
[Jacob]
Those Canaan days we used to know
Where have they gone, where did they go?
Eh bien, raise your berets
To those Canaan days
[Dan]
It's funny, but
[Naphtali]
Since we lost
[Ruben]
Joseph
[Levi]
We've gone to the other
[Issachar]
Extreme
[Asher]
Perhaps we all missjudged the lad
[Benjamin]
Perhaps he wasn't
[Gad]
Quite that bad
[Zebulun]
And how we miss his
[Judah]
Entertaining
[Simeon]
Dreams
[All Brothers]
Those Canaan days we used to know
Where have they gone, where did...
Did they go?
Eh bien, raise your berets
[Simeon]
To those Canaan
Days
[All Brothers]
Eh bien, raise your berets
To those Canaan
Days
