But every word you said today
Gets twisted round some other way
And they'll hurt you if they'll think you've lied

I could give you plans and forecasts
Even tell you where I'm going -
When do we ride into Jerusalem ?
Jesus: Why should you want to know ?
Why are you obsessed with fighting
Times and fates you can't defy ?
If you knew the path we're riding
You'd understand it less than I !
Apostles: What's the buzz ? Tell me what's happening ?
Mary M. : Let me try to cool down your face a bit ...
Jesus: That feels nice, so nice ...
Mary oohhhhh that is good <--------- Don't play for this line

Leave her, Leave her, let her be now
Leave her, Leave her, she's with me now
If your slate is clean - then you can throw stones
If your slate is not - then leave leave her alone
I'm amazed that man like you can be so shallow, thick and
slow
There's not a man among you who knows or cares if I come or
go
All: No you're wrong ! You're very wrong !
How can you say that ?

Come on, King of the Jews !
Jesus you just won't believe the hit you've made round
here
You are all we talk about the wonder of the year
Oh what a pity if it's all a lie
Still I'm sure that you can rock the cynics if you try
So you are the Christ you're the great Jesus Christ
Prove to me that you're no fool - walk across my swimming
pool
If you do that for me I'll let you go free
Come on, King of the Jews !
I only ask things I'd ask any superstar
What is it that you have got that puts you where you are
?
I'm waiting yes I'm a captive fan
I'm dying to be shown that you are not just any man
So if you are the Christ yes the great Jesus Christ
Feed my household with this bread, you can do it - on you
head !
Or has somthing gone wrong ? Why do you take so long ?
Come on, King of the Jews !
Hey ! Aren't you scared of me, Christ ? Mr. Wonderful
Christ !
You're a joke, you're not the lord! You're nothing but a
fraud
Take him away - his got nothing to say
Get out you, King of the Jews ! Get out of my life !
Judas' Death
Judas: My God ! I saw him - he looked three-quaters dead !
And he was so bad I had to turn my head
You beat him so hard that he was bent and lame
And I know who everybody's gonna blame
I don't believe he knows I acted for our good
I'd save to him all this suffering if I could
Don't believe... our good... save him... if I could...

I don't understand why you're filled with remorse
All that you've said has come true with a vengeance
The mob turned against him - you backed the right
horse
Caiaphas: What you have done will be saving of Israel
You'll be remember'd forever for this
And not only that you've been paid for your efforts
Pretty good vages for one little kiss
Judas: Christ ! I know you can hear me
But I only did what you wanted me too
Christ ! I'd sell out the nation
For I have been saddled with the murder of you
I have been spattled with innocent blood,
I shall be dragged through the slime and the mud.
I have been spattled with innocent blood,
I shall be dragged through the
slime and the slime and the slime and the mud.
I don't know how to love him
I don't know why he moves me
He's a man - he's just a man
He is not a King - he is just the same
As anyone I know
He scares me so
When he's cold and dead will he let me be ?
Does he love,does he love me too ? Does he care for
me ?
My mind is in darkness now - My God, I'm sick
I've been used and you knew ah, all the time
God ! I'll never ever knows why you chose me for your
crime
For your foul bloody crime
You have murdered me ! You have murdered me !

Trial Before Pilate
Pilate: And so the King is once again my guest
And why is this ? Was Herod unimpressed ?
Caiaphas: We turn to Rome to sentence Nazareth
We have no law to put a man to death
We need him crusified - it's all you have to do
We need him crusified - it's all you have to do
Pilate: Talk to me Jesus Christ
You have been brought here - manacled,
Beaten by your own people -
Do you have the first idea why you deserve it ?
Listen King of the Jews
Where is your kingdom ?
Look at me - am I a Jew ?
Jesus: I have got no kingdom in this world -
I'm through, through, through
Mob: Talk to me Jesus Christ
Jesus: There maybe a kingdom for me somewhere - if I only knew
Pilate: Then you're a King ?
Jesus: It's you that say I am
I look for truth and find that I get damned
Pilate: But what is truth ? Is truth unchanging law ?
We both have truths - are mine the same of your ?
Mob: Crusify him ! Crusify him !
Pilate: What do you mean - you'd crusify your King ?
Mob: We have no King but Caesar !
Pilate: He's done no wrong - no not the slightest thing
Mob: We have no King but Caesar ! Crusify him !
Pilate: I see no reason - I find no evil
This man is harmless so why does he upset you ?
He's just misguided - thinks he's important
But to keep you vultures happy I shall flog him
Mob: Crusify him ! Crusify him !
Thirty nine lashes
Pilate: Where are you from Jesus ? What do you want Jesus ?
Tell me
You're got to be careful - you could be dead soon -
could well be
Why do you not speak when I have your life in my hands
How can you stay quiet ? I don't beleive you
understand
Jesus: You have nothing in your hands
Any power you have comes to you from the beyong
Everithing is fixed and you can't change it
Pilate: You are fool Jesus Christ how can I help you ?
Mob: Pilate, crusify him, crusify him !
Remember Caeser, you have a duty,
You'll be devoted, crusify him !
You'll be deported, you have a duty
To keep on peace, so crusify him !
Pilate: Don't let me stop and great self-destruction
Die if you want to, you, misguided martyr!
I wash my hands of your demolition
Die, if you want to, innocent puppet !

Buddah was he where it's at ? Is he where you are ?
