- A Piece of Eight Lyrics (Story - tellers) And Noah and his family worked From son to son to son Till the day before the prow He stood and said (Noah) With this peg of gopher wood Your ark, O Lord, is done (Story - tellers) With final peg of gopher wood The ark at last Was done Ba ba bum bum ba ba ba bum ba bum bum ba ba bum bum ba ba bum And Noah called to his servant girl Yonah was her name He had always treated her kindly Though she bore the mark of shame As a daughter of the tainted race Ba ba bum bum ba ba bum She bore the mark of Cain Ba ba bum bum ba ba ba bum ba bum bum ba ba bum bum ba ba bum And she came and bowed, the servant girl With the mark upon her head And she asked (Yonah) What do you wish my lord? (Story-tellers) And this is what he said He said (Noah) Yonah lay the table For tonight we celebrate And tonight instead of seven places Tonight there will be eight Ba ba bum (Story-tellers) Tonight instead of seven places Tonight there would be eight Ba ba bum bum ba ba ba bum ba bum bum ba ba bum bum ba ba bum (Male story-tellers) For this was the night The youngest son Japheth was his name (Female story-tellers) Would bring to dinner his wife to be And his choice proclaim (All story-tellers) And the empty chair was meant for her The girl to be his wife Who would journey with him on the ark To a post diluvian life He said (Japheth) Yonah lay the table Don't forget the extra plate For tonight instead of seven people The family will be eight Ba ba bum (Story-tellers) Tonight instead of seven people Tonight there would be eight Ba bum bum ba ba ba bum ba ba bum bum ba ba ba bum (Story-tellers) First came Noah and his wife in a bright and merry mood Eager to meet their daughter-in-law And share their home and food And add her to their brood bum bum ba ba bum (Male story-tellers) Next there came the brothers two Ham and Sham (Female story-tellers) And the daughters of the race of Seth They chose to marry them Their beautiful wives from the race of Seth They brought along with them Hmmmmmmm... (Noah, Mama, Ham, Aphra, Sham, Ayesha and Japheth) Oh Father, for all we have received We thank You Once more we gather in the dying light (Yonah) Oh Father, for all I have received (Noah, Mama, Ham, Aphra, Sham, Ayesha and Japheth) Once more we pray you Father Bless us tonight (Yonah) I thank You Ba ba bum bum ba ba ba bum ba bum bum ba ba bum bum ba ba bum (Story-tellers) And the courses came and the minutes passed But the girl did not appear Till Noah turned to Japheth and he said (Noah) My son,I fear (Story-tellers) But Japheth laughed and laughed some more And told them all (Japheth) She's here! Ba ba bum bum ba ba ba bum ba bum bum ba ba bum bum ba ba bum (Female storyteller) Well by now you've guessed What happened next For its quiet a familiar fable (Male story-teller) He went to Yonah, the servant girl And led her to the table He said (Japheth) Yonah join the table Come and sit her at my side For its you I love best in all the world And you shall be my bride Its you I love best in all the world And I want you for my bride (Story-tellers) He brought Yonah to the table And he did not hesitate Though his father said to wait And his mother was in a state And the brothers and wives Felt the shock of their lives And they all of them dropped Their forks and knives For they all could calculate The family was eight Ba ba bum bum bum ba ba bum bum bum ba ba bum bum ba ba bum One two three four five six seven Ba ba bum bum ba ba bum Eight !!!
