Yami and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

(Tea comes on and Starts singing)

Some folks dream of the wonders they'll do
Before their time on this planet is through
Some just don't have anything planned
They hide their hopes and their heads in the sand
Now I don't say who is wrong, who is right
But if by chance you are here for the night
Then all I need is an hour or two
To tell the tale of a dreamer like you

We all dream a lot-- some are lucky, some are not
But if you think it, want it, dream it, then it's real
You are what you feel

But all that I say can be told another way
In the story of a boy whose dream came true
And he could be you

(Yami)

I closed my eyes, drew back the curtain
To see for certain what I thought I knew
Far far away, someone was weeping
But the world was sleeping
Any dream will do

(Yami & Chorus)

I wore my coat, with golden lining
Bright colors shining, wonderful and new
And in the east, the dawn was breaking
And the world was waking
Any dream will do

(Yami)

A crash of drums, a flash of light
My golden coat flew out of sight
The colors faded into darkness
I was left alone

(Yami & Chorus)

May I return to the beginning
The light is dimming, and the dream is too
The world and I, we are still waiting
Still hesitating
Any dream will do

(Yami)

A crash of drums, a flash of light
My golden coat flew out of sight
The colors faded into darkness
I was left alone

(Yami & Chorus)

May I return to the beginning
The light is dimming, and the dream is too
The world and I, we are still waiting
Still hesitating
Any dream will do

(Tea)

Way way back many centuries ago,
Not long after the Bible began
Sugaroku lived in the land of Canaan,
A fine example of a family man.
Sugaroku, Sugaroku and sons,
Depended on farming to earn their keep.
Sugaroku, Sugaroku and sons,
Spent all of their days in the fields with sheep.
Sugaroku was the founder of a whole new nation
Thanks to the number of children he had
He was also known as Israel, but most of the time
His sons and his wives used to call him Dad.
Sugaroku, Sugaroku and sons,
Men of the soil, of the sheaf and crook
Sugaroku, Sugaroku and sons,
A remarkable family in anyone's book.

(Tea, Brothers, Chorus)

Ryou was the eldest of the children of Israel
With Pegasus and Shadi the next in line
Keith and Dartz with Matt and Duke
Mokuba and Triston took the total to nine
Sugaroku, Sugaroku and sons,
Yugi and Joey, which leaves only one
Sugaroku, Sugaroku and sons,
Yami - Sugaroku's favorite son
Sugaroku, Sugaroku and sons
Sugaroku, Sugaroku and sons
Sugaroku, Sugaroku and sons
Sugaroku, Sugaroku, Sugaroku,
Sugaroku and
Sons (Sugaroku)

Yami's mother, she was quite my favorite wife
I never really loved another all my life
And Yami was my joy because
He reminded me of her

(Tea)

Through young Yami, Sugaroku lived his youth again
Loved him, praised him, gave him all he could, but then
It made the rest feel second best
And even if they were –

(Brothers)

Being told we're also-rans
Does not makes us Yami fans

(Tea)

But where they had really missed the boat is

(Brothers)

We're great guys but no-one seems to notice

(Tea)

Yami's charm and winning smile
Failed to slay them in the aisle
And his father couldn't see the danger
He could not imagine any danger
He just saw in Yami all his dreams come true
Sugaroku wanted to show the world he loved his son
To make it clear that Yami was the special one
So Sugaroku bought his son a coat
A multi-colored coat to wear

(Brothers)

Yami's coat was elegant,
The cut was fine
The tasteful style was the
Ultimate in good design
And this is why it caught the eye
A king would stop and stare

(Tea)

And when Yami tried it on
He knew his sheepskin days were gone

(Tea & Chorus)

Such a dazzling coat of many colors
How he loved his coat of many colors

(Tea)

In a class above the rest
It even went well with his vest
Such a stunning coat of many colors
How he loved his coat of many colors

(All)

It was red and yellow and green and
Brown and blue
Yami's brothers weren't
Too pleased with what they saw

(Brothers)

We have never liked him
All that much before
And now this coat
Has got our goat
We feel life is unfair

(Tea)

And when Yami graced the scene
His brothers turned a shade of green
His astounding clothing took the biscuit

(Brothers)

Quite the smoothest person in the district

(Yami)

I look handsome, I look smart
I am walking work of art
Such a dazzling coat of colors
How I love my coat of many colors

(All)

It was red and yellow and green and brown
And scarlet and black and ochre and peach
And ruby and olive and violet and fawn
And lilac and gold and chocolate and mauve
And cream and crimson and silver and rose
And azure and lemon and russet and gray
And purple and white and pink and orange
And red and yellow and green and brown and
Scarlet and black and ochre and peach
And ruby and olive and violet and fawn
And lilac and gold and chocolate and mauve
And cream and crimson and silver and rose
And azure and lemon and russet and gray
And purple and white and pink and orange
And blue

(Tea)

Yami's coat annoyed his brothers

(Brothers)

But what makes us mad
Are the things that Yami tells us of the
Dream's he often had

(Yami)

I dreamed that in the fields one day,
The corn gave me sign
Your eleven sheaves of corn
All turned and bowed to mine
My sheaf was quite a sight to see
A golden sheaf and tall
Yours were green and second-rate
And really rather small

(Brothers)

This is not the kind of thing
We brothers like to hear
It seems to us that Yami and his
Dreams should disappear

(Yami)

I dreamed I saw eleven stars,
The sun the moon and sky
Bowing down before my star,
It made me wonder why
Could it be that I was born
For higher thing than you?
A post in someone's government,
A ministry or two

(Brothers)

The dreams of our dear brother are
The decade's biggest yawn
His talk of stars and golden sheaves
Is just a load of corn
Not only is he tactless but
He's also rather dim
For there's eleven of us and
There's only one of him
The dreams of course will not come true
That is, we think they won't come true
That is, we hope they won't come true
What if he's right all along?
Nah!

The dreams are more than crystal clear,
The writing on the wall
Means that Yami some day soon
Will rise above us all
The accuracy of the dreams
We brothers do not know
But one thing we are sure about
The dreamer
Has to go

(Tea)

Next day, far from home,
The brothers planned the repulsive crime

(Brothers)

Let us grab him now,
Do him in, while weave got the time

(Tea)

This they did and made the most of it
Tore his coat and flung him in pit

(Brothers)

Let us leave him here,
All alone, and he's bound to die

(Tea)

When some Ishmaelites,
A hairy crew, came riding by
In a flash the brothers changed their plan

(Brothers)

We need cash. Let's sell him if we can

(Tea & Wives)

Poor, poor Yami, what'cha gonna do?
Things look bad for you, hey, what'cha gonna do?
Poor, poor Yami, what'cha gonna do?
Things look bad for you, hey, what'cha gonna do?

(Brothers)

Could you use a slave,
You hairy bunch of Ishmaelites?
Young, strong, well-behaved,
Going cheap and he reads and writes

(Tea)

In a trice the dirty deal was done
Silver coins for Sugaroku 's favorite son
Then the Ishmaelites
Galloped off with the slave in tow
Off to Egypt where Yami was not keen to go
It wouldn't be a picnic he could tell

(Yami)

And I don't speak Egyptian very well

(Brothers sarcastically)

AWWW

(Tea)

Yami's brothers tore
His precious multi-colored coat
Having ripped it up,
They next attacked a passing goat Kaiba comes out in a goat suit
Soon the wretched creature was no more
They dipped his coat in blood and guts and gore

(Tea & Wives)

Oh now brothers, how low can you stoop?
You make a sordid group, hey, how low can you stoop?
Poor, poor Yami, sold to be a slave
Situation's grave, hey, sold to be a slave

(Ryou) Whole song in Cowboy/Southern Twang

Father we've something to tell you, a story of

(Annoying Guy)

Pig Pie

(Ryou)

What who was that?

(Annoying Guy)

Me Vertex

(Ryou)

Why?

(Annoying Guy)

Trying to add dramatic effect

(Ryou)

That's not dramatic. Go away. Flicks Vertex

(Ryou starting over)

Father we've something to tell you, a story of our time

A tragic but inspiring tale of manhood in its prime
You know you had a dozen son -
Well now that's not quite true
But feel no sorrow, do not grieve,
He would not want you to

(Ryou, Wives & Brothers)

There's one more angel in heave
There's one more star in the sky
Yami we'll never forget you
It's tough but we're gonna get by
There's one less place a out table
There's one more tear in my eye
But Yami the things that you stood for

(Ryou)

Like truth and light never die
When I think of his last great battle
A lump comes to my throat
It takes a man who knows no fear
To wrestle with a goat
His blood-stained coat is tribute to
His final sacrifice
His body may be past its peak
But his soul's in paradise

(Sugaroku)

There's one less place a out table
There's one more tear in my eye

(Brothers)

But Yami the things that you stood for

(Ryou)

Like truth and light never die

(Brothers)

Carve his name with pride and courage

(Keith)

Let no tear be shed

(Brothers)

If he had not laid down his life
We all would now be dead

(Tea)

Yami was taken to Egypt in chains and sold,
Where he was bought by a captain named Jackiphar

(Tea & Servants)

Potiphar had very few cares
He was one of Egypt millionaires
Having made a fortune buying shares in

(Jackiphar)

Pyramids

(Tea & Servants)

Jackiphar had made a huge pile
Owned a large percentage of the Nile

(Jackiphar)

Meant that I could really live in style

(Tea & Servants)

And he did

(Tea)

Yami was an unimportant
Slave who found he liked his master
Consequently worked much harder
Even with devotion
Jackiphar could see that Yami
Was a cut above the average
Made him leader of his household
Maximum promotion

(Tea & Servants)

Jackiphar was cool and so fine

(Jackiphar)

But my wife would never toe the line

(Tea & Servants)

It's all there in chapter thirty-nine
Of Genesis
She was beautiful but

(Mai)

Evil

(Tea & Servants)

Saw a lot of men against his will
He could have to tell he that she still
Was his

(Tea)

Yami's looks and handsome figure
Had attracted her attention
Every morning she would beckon

(Mai)

Come and lie with me love

(Tea)

Yami wanted to resist her,
Till one day she proved too eager
Yami cried in vain

(Yami)

Please stop
I don't believe in free love

(Mai)

Pity

(Tea)

Jackiphar was counting shekels
In his den below the bedroom
When he heard a mighty rumpus
Clattering above him
Suddenly he knew his riches
Couldn't buy him what he wanted
Gold would never make him happy
If she didn't love him

(Tea & Chorus)

Letting out a mighty roar
Jackiphar burst through the door

(Jackiphar)

Yami, I'll see you rot in jail
The things that you have done are beyond the pale

(Tea & Chorus)

Poor, poor Yami, locked up in a cell
Things ain't going well, hey, locked up in a cell
Poor, poor Yami, locked up in a cell
Things ain't going well, hey, locked up in a cell
Locked up in a cell

(Yami)

Close every door to me,

(Annoying Guy)

I will go skateboarding

(Yami)

What?

(Annoying Guy)

Just trying to lighten the scene

(Yami)

Then go bother my brothers

(Annoying Guy)

But I'll get lonely

(Yami)

I have eleven

(Annoying Guy)

(Yami)

Hide all the world from me
Bar all the windows
And shut out the light
Do what you want with me,
Hate me and laugh at me
Darken my daytime
And torture my night
If my life were important I
Would

(Annoying Guy)

Bathe in pig pie

(Yami)

Its on

(Yami)

ask will I live or die
But I know the answers lie
Far from this world
Close every door to me,
Keep those I love from me

(Annoying Guy)

Children of Dodos

Are always alone

(Yami)

Children of Israel
Are never alone
For I know I shall find
My own peace of mind
For I have been promised
A land of my own

(Annoying Guy)

For I know I wont find

My own piece of mind

For I have not been promised

A land of my own

(Chorus)

Close every door to me,
Hide all the world from me
Bar all the windows
And shut out the light

(Yami)

Just give me a number
Instead of my name
Forget all about me
And let me decay
I do not matter,
I'm only one person

(Annoying Guy)

Destroy him completely

Then throw him away

If his life were important I

Would ask will he live or die

But I know the answers lie

Deep in my mind

(Yami)

Destroy me completely
Then throw me away
If my life were important I
Would ask will I live or die
But I know the answers lie
Far from this world

(Yami & Chorus)

Close every door to me,

(Annoying Guy)

Keep those I hate with me

(Yami & Chorus)

Keep those I love from me
Children of Israel
Are never

(Annoying Guy)

always

(All)

alone

(Yami & Chorus)

For we know we shall find
Our own peace of mind
For we have been promised
A land of our own

(Annoying Guy)

Encore, Encore

(Yami depressed)

Go away

(Annoying Guy)

Yay

(Tea)

Yami's luck was really out,
His spirit and his fortune low
Alone he sat, alone he thought
Of happy times he used to know

(Chorus)

Hey dreamer, don't be so upset
Hey Yami, you're not beaten yet

(Tea & Chorus)

Go, go, go Yami you know what they say
Hang on now Yami you'll make it some day
Don't give up Yami fight till you drop
We've read the book and you come out on top

(Tea)

Now into Yami's prison cell
Were flung two very frightened men

(Kaiba & Marik)

We don't think we will ever
See the light of day again
Hey Yami, help us if you can
We've had dreams that we don't understand

(Tea & Chorus)

Both men were servants of Pharaoh the King
Both in the doghouse for doing their thing

(Tea)

One was named Kaiba, a cook in his prime
One was named Marik, the Jeeves of his time

(Yami)

Tell me of your dreams my friends
And I will tell you what they show
Though I cannot guarantee
To get it right, I'll have a go

(Tea)

First the Marik, trembling took the floor
Nervously he spoke of what he saw

(Marik)

There I was standing in front of a vine
I took some grapes and I crushed them to wine
I gave some to Pharaoh who drank from my cup
I tried to interpret but I had to give up

(Yami)

You will soon be free my friend
So do not worry any more
The king will let you out of here,
You'll buttle as you did before

(Tea)

Next Kaiba rose to tell his dream
Hoping it would have a similar theme

(Kaiba)

There I was standing with baskets of breads
High in the sky I saw birds overhead
Who flew to my baskets and ate every slice
Give me the message - like his would be nice

(Yami)

Sad to say your dream is not
The kind of dream I'd like to get
Pharaoh has it in for you,
Your execution date is set
Don't rely on all I said I saw
It's just that I have not been wrong before
(Kaiba faints)

(Chorus)

Go, go, go, Yami
Go, go, go, Yami

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

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

(Tea)

Ahead of your time

(Yami)

Ahead of my time

(Tea)

Ahead of your time

(Yami)

Ahead of my

(All)

Time

(Tea)

Pharaoh, he was
A powerful man
With the ancient world
In the palm of his hand
To all intents and purposes he
Was Egypt with a capital E
Whatever he did
He was showered with praise
If he cracked a joke
Then you chortled for days
No-one had rights or a
Vote but the king
In fact you might say
He was fairly right-wing
When Pharaoh's around,
Then you get down on the ground
If you ever find yourself near Bakura
Get down on your knees

(Chorus)

A Pharaoh's story,
A Pharaoh's story
A Pharaoh's story,
A Pharaoh's story

(Tea)

Down at the other
End of the scale
Yami is still
Doing time in jail
For even though he is
In with the guards
A lifetime in prison
Seems quite on the cards
But if my analysis of
The position is right
At the end of the tunnel
There's seems a glimmer of light
For all of a sudden
Indescribable things
Have shattered the sleep
Of both peasants and kings
Strange as it seems,
There's been a run of crazy dreams
And a man who can interpret
Could go far - could become a star

(Chorus)

Could be famous,
Could be a big success
Could be famous,
Could be a big success

(Tea)

Strange as it seems
There's been a
Run of crazy dreams
And a man who can interpret
Could go far
Could become a star

(All)

Could be famous,
Could be a big success
Could be famous,
Could be a big success
Strange as it seems
There's been a
Run 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 star

(Tea)

Guess what? In his bed Pharaoh
Had an uneasy night
He had had a dream that pinned him
To his sheets with fright
No-one knew the meaning of this dream
What to do, whatever could it mean?
Then his butler said

(Marik)

I know of a bloke in jail
Who is hot on dreams,
Could explain old Pharaoh's tale

(Tea)

Pharaoh said

(Bakura)

Well fetch this Yami man
I need him to help me if he can

(Narrator & Guards & Admirers)

Poor, poor Pharaoh,
What'cha gonna do
Dreams are haunting you, hey,
What'cha gonna do

(Tea)

Chained up and afraid, alone
Yami stood before the throne

(Yami)

My service to Pharaoh has begun
Tell me your problems, mighty one

(Bakura) Elvis Impersonation

Well I was wandering along by the banks of the river
When seven fat cows came up out of the Nile, uh-huh
And right behind these fine healthy animals came
Seven other cows, skinny and vile, uh-huh
Well the thin cows ate the fat cows which I
Thought would do them good, uh-huh
But it didn't make them fatter like such
A monster supper should

Well the thin cows were as thin
As they had ever, ever, ever been
Well this dream has got me baffled
Hey, Yami, what does it mean?

Well you know that kings ain't stupid
But I don't have a clue
So don't be cruel Yami
Help me I beg of you

Well I was standing doing nothing in a field out of town
When I saw seven beautiful ears of corn, uh-huh
They were ripe, they were golden and
You've guessed it,
Right behind them came seven other ears
Tattered and torn, uh-huh

Well the bad corn ate the good corn
They came up from behind yes they did
Now Joseph here's the punch line
It's really gonna blow your mind

Well the bad corn was
As bad as it had ever, ever, ever been
Well this dream has got me all shook up
Treat me nice and tell me what it means

Hey, hey, hey Yami
Won't you tell poor old Pharaoh
What does this

Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy dream mean?
Oh yeah

(Yami)

Seven years of bumper crops are on their way
Years of plenty, endless wheat and toms of hay
Your farms will boom, there won't be room
To store the surplus food you grow
After that, the future doesn't look so bright
Egypt's luck will change completely overnight
And famine's hand will stalk the land
With food an all-time low
Noble king, there is no doubt
What your dreams are all about
All these things you saw in your pajamas
Are a long-range forecast for your farmers
And I'm sure it's crossed your mind
What it is you have to find
Find a man to lead you through the famine
With a flair for economic planning

(Yami, Guards, & Admirers)

But who this man could be
I just don't know
Who this man could be
I just don't know
Who this man could be
I just don't know

(Tea)

Pharaoh said -

(Bakura)

Well stone the crows,
This Yami is a clever kid
Who'd have thought that fourteen cows
Could mean the things he said they did?
Yami, you must help me further;
I have got a job for you
You shall lead us through this crisis -
You shall be my number two

(Tea & Admirers)

Pharaoh told his guards to fetch
A chisel from the local store
Whereupon he ordered them
To cut the chains that Yami wore
Yami got a royal pardon
And a host of splendid things
A chariot of gold, a cloak,
A medal and some signet rings

Yami -
Pharaoh's number two
Yami -
Egypt looks to you

(All)

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

(Tea)

Seven summers on the job

Were perfect just as Yami said
Yami saw that food was gathered
Ready for the years ahead
Seven years of famine followed
Egypt didn't mind a bit
The first recorded rationing
In history was a hit

(Admirers)

Yami how can we ever say
All that we want to about you
We're so glad that you came our way
We would have perished without you

(Bakura)

Yami we are the perfect team
Old buddies, that's you and me
I was wise to have chosen you
You'll be wise to agree

(Admirers)

Joseph how can we ever say
All that we want to about you
We're so glad that you came our way
We would have perished without you

(Bakura)

We were in a jam
Would have baffled Abraham
But now we're a partnership
It's just a piece of cake

(Admirers)

Greatest man since Noah
Only goes to show-uh

(Yami)

Anyone from anywhere can make it
If they get a lucky break

(Tea)

This could be a happy ending,
Perfect place to stop the show
Yami after all has gone
About as far as he can go
But I'm sure that Sugaroku and
His other sons have crossed your mind
How had famine hit the family
Yami left behind?

(Pegasus) All song with French Accent

Do you remember the good years in Canaan?

(Annoying Guy)

(Pegasus)

The summers were endlessly gold

(Annoying Guy)
Keep on hold

(Pegasus)

The fields were a patchwork of clover

(Annoying Guy)

All Over

(Pegasus)

The winters were never too cold

(Annoying Guy)

How bold

(Pegasus)

We'd stroll down the boulevards together
And everything round us was fine

(Annoying Guy)

Divine

(Pegasus)

Now the fields are dead and bare
No joie de vivre anywhere
Et maintenat we drink a bitter wine

(Annoying Guy)

How Fine

(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

(Annoying Guy)

Hey

(Pegasus)

Do you remember those wonderful parties?

(Annoying Guy)

(Pegasus)

The splendor of Canaan's cuisine

(Annoying Guy)

I like candy

(Pegasus)

Our extravagant, elegant soirees
The gayest the Bible has seen
It's funny but since we lost Yami
We've gone to the other extreme

(Annoying Guy)

How sad

(Pegasus)

No-one comes to dinner now

(Annoying Guy)

I'll come

(Pegasus)

We only eat them anyhow

(Annoying Guy)

Never mind mumbles cannibals

(Pegasus)

I even find I'm missing Yami'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

(Pegasus)

It's funny but since we lost Yami
We've gone to the other extreme
Perhaps we all misjudged the lad
Perhaps he wasn't quite that bad

(Annoying Guy)

nah

(Pegasus)

And how we miss his entertaining dreams

(Brothers)

Those Canaan days we used to know
Where have they gone, where

diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid
Big Breath

(Annoying Guy)

Long notes

(Brothers)

diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid
they go

Eh bien, raise your berets
To those Ca

(Annoying Guy)

naahahahahahahahn

ow!

One brother eats Annoying Guy

All Brothers Cheer

(Brothers)

Eh bien, raise your berets
To those Canaan days

(Tea)

So back in Canaan the future looked rough
Sugaroku's family were finding it tough

(Brothers)

For the famine has 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

(Ryou)

We will starve if we hang around here

(Mokuba)

But in Egypt there's food going spare

(Matt)

They've got corn
They've got meat
They've got fruit and drinks

(Duke)

And if we have the time
We could see the Sphinx

(Tea)

So they finally decided to go

(Brothers)

Here we go!

(Tea)

Off to Egypt to see brother Yami
So they all lay before
Yami's feet

(Brothers)

Mighty prince, give us something to eat

(Tea)

Yami found it a strain
Not to laugh because
Not a brother among them
Knew who he was

(Yami)

I shall now take them all for a ride
After all they have tried fratricide
I dreamed that in the fields one day,
The corn gave me sign
Your eleven sheaves of corn
All turned and bowed to mine
I dreamed I saw eleven stars,
The sun the moon and sky
Bowing down before my star,
And now I realize why
How do I know where you come from?
You could be spies
Telling me that you are hungry -
That could be lies
How do I know who you are?
Why do you think I should help you?
Would you help me?

(Brothers)

Yes

(Yami)

Why on earth should I believe you?
I've no guarantee

(Brothers

Grovel, grovel, cringe, bow, stoop, fall
Worship, worship, beg, kneel, sponge, crawl
Grovel, grovel, cringe, bow, stoop, fall
Worship, worship, beg, kneel, sponge, crawl
We are just eleven brothers,
Good men and true
Though we know we count for nothing
When up next to you
Honesty's are middle name
Life is slowly ebbing from us,
Hope's almost gone
It's getting very hard to see us
From sideways on
Grovel, grovel, cringe, bow, stoop, fall
Worship, worship, beg, kneel, sponge, crawl

(Yami)

I rather like the way you're talking,
Astute and sincere
Suddenly your tragic story
It gets me right here

(Brothers)

This is what we hoped he'd say

(Yami)

All this tugging at my heartstrings
Seems quite justified
I shall give you what you came for
And lots more beside

(Brothers)

Thank you, thank you, cringe, bow, stoop, fall
Worship, worship, beg, kneel, sponge, crawl
Thank you, thank you, cringe, bow, stoop, fall
Worship, worship, beg, kneel, sponge, crawl

(Tea)

Yami handed them sack loads of food
And they groveled with base gratitude

(Tea & Admirers)

Then, unseen, Yami nipped out around the back

Brothers look up

(Yami)

Try the Hot Pockets

(Tea & Admirers)

And planted a cup in young Yugi's sack

(Tea)

When the brothers were ready to go
Yami turned to them all
With a terrible stare and said

(Yami)

No No No No No
Stop, you robbers -
Your little number's up
One of you has stolen
My precious golden cup

(Tea)

Yami started searching
Through his brothers' sacks
Everyone was nervous,
No-one could relax

(Admirers)

Who's the thief?
Who's the thief?
Who's the thief?
Who's the thief?

(Tea)

Is it Ryou? No.
Is it Pegasus? No.
Is it Keith? No.
Is it Duke? No.
Is it Matt? No.
Is it Dartz? No.
Is it Shadi No.
Who's the man?
Is it Mokuba? No.
Is it Triston? No.
Is it Joey? No.
Is it him?

(Admirers)

Could it be, could it be
Could it be, could it be
Could it be, could it be

(Tea)

Could it possibly be Yugi?

(Admirers)

Yes. Yes. Yes.

(Yami)

Yugi, you nasty youth,
Your crime has shocked me to the core
Never in my whole career
Have I encountered this before
Guards, seize him! Lock him in a cell
Throw the keys into the Nile as well

(Tea)

Each of the brothers fell to his knees

(Brothers)

Show him some mercy, oh mighty one please
He would not do this, he must have been framed
Jail us and beat us, we should be blamed.

In Jamaican Accent

Oh no - not he
How can you accuse him is a mystery
Save him - take me
Yugi is straighter than the tall palm tree

(Joey)

I hear the steel drums sing their song
They're singing man you know you've got it wrong
I hear the voice of the yellow bird
Singing in the tree this is quite absurd
Oh yes

(Brothers)

Oh yes

(Joey)

It's true

(Brothers)

It's true

(Joey)

Yugi is straighter than the big bamboo
No ifs

(Brothers)

No ifs

(Joey)

No buts

(Brothers)

No buts

(Joey)

Yugi is honest as coconuts
Sure as the tide wash the golden sand
Yugi is an innocent man
Sure as bananas need the sun
We are the criminal guilty ones

Oh no

(Brothers)

Oh no

(Joey)

Not he

(Brothers)

Not he
How you can accuse him is a mystery

(Joey)

Save him

(Brothers)

(Joey)

Take me

(Brothers)

Yugi is straighter than the tall palm tree

(All)

la la la la la la la la la la la la la lala

(Joey & Brothers)

(All)

La la la la la la la

(Tea)

Yami knew by this his brothers now were honest men
The time had come at last to reunite them all again

(Yami)

Can't you recognize my face? Is it had to see
That Yami, who you thought was dead, your brother
It's me?

(Brothers)

Yami, Yami, is it really true?
Yami, Yami, is it really you?

(Tea, Brothers, Admirers, & Guards)

Yami, Yami

(All)

So Sugaroku came to Egypt,
No longer feeling old
And Yami came to meet him
In his chariot
Of gold
Of gold
Of gold
Of gold

(Yami)

I closed my eyes, drew back the curtain
To see for certain what I thought I knew
Far far away, someone was weeping
But the world was sleeping
Any dream will do

(Yami & Chorus)

I wore my coat, with golden lining
Bright colors shining, wonderful and new
And in the east, the dawn was breaking
And the world was waking
Any dream will do

(Yami)

A crash of drums

(Tea)

A flash of light

(Yami)

My golden coat flew out of sight

(Yami & Tea)

The colors faded into darkness
I was left alone

(Yami, Tea, & Brothers)

May I return to the beginning
The light is dimming, and the dream is too
The world and I, we are still waiting
Still hesitating, any dream will do
Still hesitating, any dream will do

(Full Company)

May I return to the beginning
The light is dimming, and the dream is too
The world and I, we are still waiting
Still hesitating, any dream will do
Give me my colored coat,
My amazing colored coat
Give me my colored coat,
My amazing colored
Coat

Go go go Yami

There's one more angel in heaven

A Pharaoh's story

A Pharaoh's story
A Pharaoh's story
Strange as it seems
There's been a run 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
Yami,
Pharaoh's number two
Yami,
Egypt looks to you
Yami,
Pharaoh's number two
Yami,
Egypt looks to you
Yami!
Well I was wandering
along by the banks of the river
When seven fat cows
came up out of the Nile,
uh-huh oh yeah!
And right behind these
fine healthy animals came
Seven other cows,
skinny and vile, uh-huh oh yeah!
Well 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 such
A monster supper should
Well the thin cows were as thin
As they had ever, ever, ever been
This dream has got me baffled
Hey, Yami, what does it mean?
Well you know that kings ain't stupid
But I don't have a clue
So don't be cruel Yami
Help now me I beg of you
So back in Canaan
the future looked rough
Sugaroku's family were finding it tough
For the famine has
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 meat
They've got fruit and drinks
And if we have the time
We could see the Sphinx
So they finally decided to go
Here we go!
Off to Egypt to see brother Yami

Oh no - not he
How you can accuse him is a mystery
Save him - take me
Yugi is straighter
than the tall palm tree
Oh, yes - its true
Yugi is straighter
than the big bamboo
No ifs, No buts
Yugi is honest as coconuts
La la la la la la la la...
So Sugaroku came to Egypt
No longer feeling old
And Yami came to meet him
In his chariot
Of gold
Of gold
Of gold
Give me my colored coat
My amazing colored coat
Give me my colored coat
My amazing colored coat!
