Lyrics

[MOSES, spoken] Rameses, you're Pharaoh. You have the power to do whatever you want [RAMESES, spoken] Is that what you think? (sung) When I was a boy I couldn't wait to be a man I thought that then I'd finally be free There'd be no more scolding voices I'd make my own choices I dreamt about how happy life would be when I grew up Then I grew up And now I sometimes have to laugh for all I'm worth I'm the least free man on Earth The least free man on Earth (spoken) I'd be alone against everyone. Unless… [MOSES] Unless what? What are you thinking? [RAMESES] I'm not thinking. I'm remembering… (sung) There was a time when every time I tumbled down I had my brother my accomplice and my clown To pick me up, restore my purpose and my pride When you were always at my side At my side, at my side I'm stronger with you at my side [MOSES & (RAMESES)] You're saying every change I made I must reverse (Yes) My wife would kill me [RAMESES] Yes, and mine'd do even worse, but I'll only do it if you promise me that I'd Have you back here and on my side On my side, on my side Once more to have you on my side [MOSES & (RAMESES)] On your side, on your side (On my side, on my side) (I know you're always) On your side (So once again, my brother has a second birth) So once again, it seems, I have a second birth (Now you can be the second-least free man on Earth) And I'll be even more the least-free man on Earth [BOTH] Against all others you will keep me fortified [MOSES] To set my people free Well, if the price is me [BOTH] From now on I (you) will be [MOSES & (RAMESES)] Always on your side (Always on my side)
