Lyrics for Song: The Last Supper
Lyrics for Album: Jesus Christ Superstar [1971]



APOSTLES



Look at all my trials and tribulations

Sinking in a gentle pool of wine

Don't disturb me now I can see the answers

Till this evening is this morning life is fine



Always hoped that I'd be an apostle

Knew that I would make it if I tried

Then when we retire we can write the gospels

So they'll still talk about us when we've died



JESUS



The end . . .

Is just a little harder when brought about by friends

For all you care this wine could be my blood

For all you care this bread could be my body

The end!



This is my blood you drink

This is my body you eat

If you would remember me when you eat and drink.



I must be mad thinking I'll be remembered - yes

I must be out of my head!

Look at your blank faces! My name will mean nothing

Ten minutes after I'm dead!

One of you denies me

One of you betrays me



APOSTLES



Not I! Who would? Impossible!



JESUS



Peter will deny me in just a few hours

Three times will deny me - and that's not all I see

One of you here dining, one of my twelve chosen

Will leave to betray me



JUDAS

Cut out the dramatics! You know very well who



JESUS

Why don't you go do it?



JUDAS

You want me to do it!



JESUS

Hurry they are waiting



JUDAS

If you knew why I do it . . .



JESUS

I don't care why you do it!



JUDAS

To think I admired you

For now I despise you



JESUS

You liar - you Judas



JUDAS

You wanted me to do it!

What if I just stayed here

And ruined your ambition?

Christ you deserve it!



JESUS

Hurry you fool, hurry and go,

Save me your speeches

I don't want to know - Go! Go!



APOSTLES



Look at all my trials and tribulations

Sinking in a gentle pool of wine

What's that in the bread it's gone to my head

Till this morning is this evening life is fine



Always hoped that I'd be an apostle

Knew that I would make it if I tried

Then when we retire we can write the gospels

So they'll all talk about us when we've died



JUDAS



You sad pathetic man - see where you've brought us to

Our ideals die around us and all because of you

But the saddest cut of all -

Someone has to turn you in

Like a common criminal, like a wounded animal

A jaded mandarin

A jaded mandarin

Like a jaded, faded, faded, jaded, jaded mandarin



JESUS

Get out! They're waiting! Get out! They're waiting!

Oh! They're waiting for you!



JUDAS

Everytime I look at you I don't understand

Why you let the things you did get so out of hand

You'd have managed better if you'd had it planned -

Ah --- ah



APOSTLES

Look at all my trials and tribulations

Sinking in a gentle pool of wine

What's that in the bread it's gone to my head

Till this evening is this morning life is fine



Always hoped that I'd be an apostle

Knew that I would make it if I tried If I tried

Then when we retire we can write the gospels

So they'll still talk about us when we've died



JESUS

Will no-one stay awake with me?

Peter? John? James?

Will none of you wait with me?

Peter? John? James?
