Master of the jews
Master of the Jews to the tune of “Master of the House” from Les Miserables
(sung by the Hebrews)
Master of the Jews, giving us a push.
Sure that God is hiding in a burning bush.
Here another frog, there a little lice.
Thinking Pharaoh’s gonna follow his advice.
If we do as Moses tells us, all of us will surely lose.
Heading to disaster following the Master of the Jews.
Water from a stone, manna from the sky.
Everything he promises is just a lie.
We will all be lost. It will be a mess
Wandering the desert without G.P.S.
Can’t you see the front page headlines? We’ll be on the late night news.
Meeting with disaster following the Master of the Jews.
(sung by the Pharaoh’s daughter)
I used to dream that I would raise a prince,
But gods almighty, have you seen what happened since?
Master of the Jews — just a rotten kid!
Can’t he see we need another pyramid?
Foolish little man, doesn’t Moses know
Pharaoh’s never gonna let the Hebrews go.
What a cruel trick of nature! This is not the son I’d choose.
Once a Hebrew bastard, now he is the Master of the Jews.
(sung by the Hebrews)
Master of the Jews — isn’t that a laugh?
We’d be better worshiping a golden calf.
Telling us to pack, telling us to flee,
Promising that God will end our slavery.
Holding out the hope of freedom, saying that it’s ours to choose.
Heading to disaster quick — Hey, don’t the Pharaoh’s cows look sick? –
Heading to disaster following the Master of the Jews.
