Poor, Poor Pharaoh Lyrics by Andrew Lloyd Webber, Tim Rice

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

1999

[Narrator]
Guess what? In his bed
Pharaoh had an uneasy night
He had had a dream
That pinned him to his sheets with fright
No one knew the meaning of the dream
What to do? Whatever could it mean?
Then his butler said
[Butler]
I know of a bloke in jail
Who is hot on dreams
Could explain old Pharaoh's tale
[Narrator]
Pharaoh said
[Pharaoh]
Well, fetch this Joseph man
I need him to help me if he can
[Narrator]
Poor, poor Pharaoh, what'cha gonna do?
Dreams are haunting you, hey, what'cha gonna do?
Chained and bound, afraid, alone
Joseph stood before the throne
[Joseph]
My service to Pharaoh has begun
Tell me your problems
Mighty one
