Lyrics
Well, I was wandering along the banks of a river
When seven fat cows came out of the Nile
Uh-huh
Oh, yeah
And right behind these fine healthy animals
Came seven other cows that were skinny and vile
Uh-huh
Oh, yeah
And then the thin cows ate the fat cows
Which I thought would do them good
Uh-huh
Oh, yeah
But it didn't make them fatter
Like I thought a monster supper should
Oh, no
Because the thin cows were as thin as they had
Ever, ever, ever, ever been
Oh, this dream has got me baffled
Joseph, won't you tell me what it means?
Now you know that kings ain't stupid
But I don't have a clue
Don't you be cruel, Joseph
Help me, now, beg of you
I was standing doing nothing in a field out of town
When I saw seven beautiful ears of corn
Uh-huh
Oh, yeah
Oh, they were ripe, they were golden
But you guessed it, right behind them
There were seven other ears that were tattered and torn
Uh-huh
Oh, yeah
And then the bad corn ate the good corn, man
They came up from behind, yes they did
Now Joseph, here's the punchline
It's really gonna blow your mind
This is gonna flip your lid
Because the bad corn was as bad as it had
Ever, ever, ever been
Oh, this dream has got me all shook up
Dreamy eyes, tell me what it means
Well, I understood the bit about the corn
But I'm not quite sure about the cows
I was just wondering if you could give it to me one more time, Mr
Pharaoh man?
Please
Hey, Joseph
Won't you tell poor old Pharaoh?
What does it mean?
Oh, yeah
