Those Canaan Days lyrics 

  

"Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" soundtrack

 

Simeon

 

Do you remember the good years in Canaan?

The summers were endlessly gold

The fields were a patchwork of clover

The winters were never too cold

We'd stroll down the boulevards together

And averything round us was fine

Jacob

 

Now the fileds are dead and bare

No joie de vivre anywhere

Et maintenant we drink a bitter wine

Brothers

 

Those Canaan days we used to know

Where have they gone, where did they go?

Eh bien, raise your berets

To those Canaan days

Simeon

 

Do you remember those wonderful parties?

The splendour of Canaan's cuisine

Our extravagant, elegant soirees

The gayest the Bible has seen

It's funny but since we lost Joseph

We've gone to the other extreme

No-one comes to dinner now

We only eat them anyhow

I even find I'm missing Joseph's dreams

 

Brothers

 

Those Canaan days we used to know

Where have they gone, where did they go?

Eh bien, raise your berets

To those Canaan days

Simeon

 

It's funny but since we lost Joseph

We've gone to the other extreme

Perhaps we all misjudged the lad

Perhaps he wasn't quite that bad

And how we miss his entertaining dreams

Brothers

 

Those Canaan days we used to know

Where have they gone, where did they go?

Eh bien, raise your berets

Simeon

 

To those Canaan ................................days

Brothers

 

Eh bien, raise your berets

To those Canaan days
