As Pirâmides de Faraó

The Pyramids of Pharaoh
The Bible tells that a long time ago
The people of Israel were enslaved there in Egypt
Where they were forced to build pyramids
Day and night, non-stop
There was a king there in Egypt called Pharaoh
He was a very evil king, this pharaoh
Oh, I am a mighty king
Oh, I enslaved all these people
Oh, I am a mighty king
Oh, I enslaved all these people
While the slaves
They built pyramids non-stop
They also prayed night and day
For God to free them
Oh, hear our cry
Oh, God ease our pain
Oh, hear our cry
Oh, God ease our pain
So Moses went to Pharaoh
Say what God has commanded
The people of Israel have to leave
For thus the Lord commanded
Oh, let My people go
Oh, to worship Me
Oh, let My people go
Oh, to worship Me
Pharaoh hardened himself
No one is leaving here!
(Like this?)
After all I am the Pharaoh of Egypt
And who is this God of my slaves?
To order me around?
(Han?)
Besides I have
Lots of pyramids to build, haha!
God insisted
Let My people go or Egypt, I will smite
Oh, Egypt will suffer
Oh, until you obey me
God then sent ten plagues
Let My people go
When God showed His power
Pharaoh had to obey (finally!)
Oh, I let Your people go
Oh, I leave him alone, he leaves
Oh, make Israel depart
Oh, pray for me too
