Andrew Lloyd Webber
Those Canaan Days
[Simeon]
Do you remember the good years in Canaan?
The summers were endlessly gold

[Judah]
Mais oui!

[Simeon
The fields were a patchwork of clover

[Issachar]
All over!

[Simeon]
The winters were never too cold
We'd stroll down the boulevard together
A promenade simply divine

[Jacob]
Now the fields are dead and bare
No joie de vivre anywhere
Et maintеnant we drink a bitter wine

[All Brothers]
Thosе 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?

[Asher]
Ooh la la!

[Simeon]
The splendor of Canaan's cuisine
Our extravagant, elegant soirés
The gayest the Bible has seen

It's funny, but, since we lost Joseph
We've gone to the other extreme

[Jacob]
No one comes to dinner now

[Simeon]
We'd only eat them anyhow
I even find I'm missing Joseph's dreams

[All 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
[Jacob]
Those Canaan days we used to know
Where have they gone, where did they go?
Eh bien, raise your berets
To those Canaan days

[Dan]
It's funny, but

[Naphtali]
Since we lost

[Ruben]
Joseph

[Levi]
We've gone to the other

[Issachar]
Extreme

[Asher]
Perhaps we all missjudged the lad

[Benjamin]
Perhaps he wasn't
[Gad]
Quite that bad

[Zebulun]
And how we miss his

[Judah]
Entertaining

[Simeon]
Dreams

[All Brothers]
Those Canaan days we used to know
Where have they gone, where did...
Did they go?
Eh bien, raise your berets

[Simeon]
To those Canaan
Days

[All Brothers]
Eh bien, raise your berets
To those Canaan
Days
