Benjamin Calypso Lyrics - Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (1992 Canadian Cast) - Tim Rice

Brothers 

Oh no - not he 

How you can accuse him is a mystery 

Save him - take me 

Benjamin is straighter than the tall palm tree 

Judah 

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 it is quite absurd 

Judah & Brothers 

Oh, yes - its true 

Benjamin is straighter than the big bamboo 

No ifs - No buts 

Benjamin is honest as coconuts 

Judah 

Sure as the tide wash the golden sand 

Benjamin is an innocent man 

Sure as bananas need the sun 

We are the criminal guilty ones 

Judah, Brothers & Female Ensemble 

Oh no - not he 

How you can accuse him is a mystery 

Save him - take me 

Benjamin is straighter than the tall palm tree 

La la la la la la la la... 

Oh no - not he 

How you can accuse him is a mystery 

Save him - take me 

Benjamin is straighter than the tall palm tree 

Judah 

Sure as the tide wash the golden sand 

Benjamin is an innocent man 

Sure as bananas need the sun 

We are the criminal guilty ones 

Judah, Brothers & Female Ensemble 

Oh no - not he 

How you can accuse him is a mystery 

Save him - take me 

Benjamin is straighter than the tall palm tree 

Oh no - not he 

How you can accuse him is a mystery 

Save him - take me 

La la la la la la la la
