Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go

Red, yellow, green, brown
Scarlet, black, ochre, peach
Ruby, olive, violet, fawn
Lilac, gold, chocolate, mauve
Cream and crimson and silver and rose
And azur and lemon and russet and gray
And purple and white and pink and orange and blue

He looks handsome, he looks smart
He is a walking work of art
In his dazzling coat of many colors
How he loves his coat of many colors
It's what?

Red, yellow, green, brown
Scarlet, black, ochre, peach
Ruby, olive, violet, fawn
Lilac, gold, chocolate, mauve
Cream and crimson and silver and rose
And azur and lemon and russet and gray
And purple and white and pink and orange and blue

There's one more angel in heaven
There's one more star in the sky
Joseph, we'll never forget you
It's tough, but we're gonna get by
There's one more angel in heaven
There's one more star in the sky
Joseph, the things that you stood for
That's truth and that never dies

Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go, go

Go, go, go, Joseph, you know what they say
Hang on now, Joseph, you'll make it some day
Sha-la-la, Joseph, you're doing fine
You and your dreams, both ahead of your time
Go, go, go, Joseph, you know what they say
Hang on now, Joseph, you'll make it some day
Sha-la-la, Joseph, you're doing fine
You and your dreams, both ahead of your time
Go, go, go, Joseph, you know what they say
Hang on now, Joseph, you'll make it some day
Sha-la-la, Joseph, you're doing fine
You and your dreams, both ahead of your time

A Pharaoh story
A Pharaoh story
A Pharaoh story
A Pharaoh story
Strange as it seems, there's been a flood of crazy dreams
And a man who can interpret could go far
Could become a star
Could be famous, could be a big success
Could be famous, could be a big success
Could be famous, could be a big success
Could be famous, could be a big success

Joseph, Joseph, Pharaoh's number two
Pharaoh's number two
Joseph, Joseph, Egypt looks to you
Egypt looks to you
Joseph, Joseph, Pharaoh's number two
Pharaoh's number two
Joseph, Joseph, Egypt looks to you
Egypt looks to you
Joseph

Well, I was wandering along by the banks of the river
When seven fat cows came out of the Nile, uh-huh
And the rider behind these fine healthy animals
Kept seven other cows skinny and vile, uh-huh, oh yeah
Well, the thin cows ate the fat cows
Which I thought would do 'em good, uh-huh, oh yeah
But it didn't make 'em fatter
Like it's such a monster's supper should, oh no
Well, the thin cows were as thin as
They had ever, ever, ever, ever been
Well, this dream has got me baffled
Hey, Joseph, please tell me what it means, yeah

Well, you know that kings ain't stupid
I don't have a clue
Don't be cruel to Joseph
Help me, I beg of you
So back in Canaan the future looked rough
Jacob's family were finding tough
All of famine had caught us unprepared
We are thin, we are ill, we are getting scared
It's enough to make anyone weep
We are down to our very last sheep
We will starve if we hang around here
And in Egypt there's food going spare
They've got corn, they've got wheat
They've got fruit and figs
And if we had the time we could see the Sphinx
So they finally decided to go
Here we go, off to Egypt to see brother Joe

Oh no (oh no), not he (not he)
How you can accuse him is a mystery
Save him (save him), save me (save me)
Benjamin is straighter than the tall palm tree
Oh yes (oh yes), it's true (it's true)
Benjamin is straighter than the big bamboo
No ifs (no ifs), no buts (no buts)
Benjamin is honest as coconuts

La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

So Jacob came to Egypt, no longer feeling old
And Joseph came to meet him in his chariot of gold
Oh God, oh God
Give me my coloured coat, my amazing coloured coat
Give me my coloured coat, my amazing coloured coat
