Song of the King

Lyrics

[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 now, 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
