Say You Are My Sister

Inspired by Genesis 12:11-16

Sarai, Sarai, 
my beautiful wife,
please don't let Pharaoh
put me under the knife.

I don't know what will happen
when he takes you to bed
but surely you can't wish
he'd kill me instead.

Whatever happens
inside Pharoah’s bed,
you'll be much better off
than if I were dead.

Say you’re my sister
it will be well you'll see,
I'll give you 10%
of what he bestows upon me.
