So You Wanna Go Back to Egypt

                                  So you wanna go back to Egypt

Where it's warm and secure

Are sorry you bought the one way ticket

When you thought you were sure

You wanted to live in the land of promise

But now it's getting so hard

Are you sorry you're out here in the desert

Instead of your own back yard



Eating leaks and onions by the Nile

Ooh what breath for dining out in style

Ooh, my life's on the skids

Building the pyramids



Well there's nothing do but travel

And we sure travel a lot

'Cause it's hard to keep your feet from moving

When the sand gets so hot

And in the morning it's manna hotcakes

We snack on manna all day

And we sure had a winner last night for dinner

Flaming manna souffle



Well we once complained for something new to munch

The ground opened up and had some of us for lunch

Ooh, such fire and smoke

Can't God even take a joke? Huh? NO!



So you wanna to back to Egypt

Where your friends wait for you

You can throw a big party and tell the whole gang

Of what they said was all true

And this Moses acts like a big shot

Who does he think he is?

Well it's true that God works lots of miracles

But Moses thinks they're all his



Oh we're having so much trouble even now

Why'd he get so mad about that c-c-c-cow (that golded calf)

Moses seems rather idle

He just sits around, he just sits around and writes the Bible!



Oh, Moses, put down your pen!

What? Oh no, manna again?



Oh, manna waffles

Manna burgers

Manna bagels

Fillet of manna

Manna patty

BaManna bread!
