Sung to baby Moses by his mother as she prepares to leave him in a basket in the River Nile.

Hush, hush, hush little baby now don't you cry!
Sleep, sleep, sleep by the river, the world goes by.
Oh please don't cry, every stranger 
puts your whole future in danger;
I've tried so hard to arrange an escape for you.
Is there more I could do?

Riverside Lullaby

Confrontation between Moses and Pharaoh which describes the ten plagues which afflict the Egyptian people.

Hey, Pharaoh, when are you goin' to let my people go?
Hey, Pharaoh, when are you goin' to let my people go?
It's a major complication of the human situation now
That people wanna be free.
And we don't make no apology, it's part of our psychology
That people wanna be free.

Hey, Pharaoh!

Sung by the Egyptian courtiers who are enjoying a life of luxury because the Hebrews - the descendants of Jacob - are forced to work as slaves.

We are the courtiers of Egypt
And we can do anything that we please.
We don't even have to shirk, cos we don't have any work,
We're so used to living a life of ease.
We are the Fat Cats of Egypt, we get the cream of the land.
It doesn't matter who suffers, we keep our heads in the sand...
