Judas' Death

JUDAS

my God i saw him

he looked three quarters 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 everybodys gonna blame

I dont believe he knows

I acted for our good

I'd save him all te suffering if I could

dont believe our good

save him if I could



PRIEST NO. 3

cut the confessions

forget the excuses

i dont understand why your

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 the saving of Israel

youll be remembered

forever for this

and not only that

you've been paid for your efforts

pretty good wages for one little kiss



JUDAS

Christ i know you cant hear me

but i only did what you wanted me to

Christ I'd sell out the nation

for i have been saddled with the murder of you

i have been spattered with innocent blood

i should be dragged thru the slime and the mud

i have been spattered with innocent blood

i should be dragged thru the slime and the slime and the slime and the mud

i dont know how to love him

i dont know why he moves me

hes a man

hes just a man

he not a king

hes just the same as anyone i know

he scares me so

when I'm cold and dead

will he let me be

does he love me

does he love me too

does he care for me(oh oh)

(ah ah ah)

my mind is in the darkness now

my God

i am sick

ive been used

and you knew all the time

God!

I'll never ever know

why you chose me

your crime

your foul bloody crime



CHOIR IN BACKROUND REPEATING

JUDAS
