Listen Jesus do you care for your race,
Can't you see we must keep in our place

You'd have managed better if you'd had it planned
Why'd you choose such a backward time and such a strange land?
If you'd come today you would have reached a whole nation
Israel in 4 B.C. had no mass communication

Voice of Judas:
E G7
Tell me what you think about your friends at the top
A7 E7
Who d'you think besides your self's the pick of the crop?
Buddha was he where it's at? Is he where you are?
Could Mohammed move a mountain or was that just PR?
Did you mean to die like that? Was that a mistake or
Did you know your messy death would be a record-breaker?
Girls: Don't you get me wrong, Don't you get me wrong now {2 times}
Judas: Don't you get me wrong {4 times}
Girls: Only want to know, Only want to know now {2 times}
Judas: Only want to know {4 times}
Choir: Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ (with only piano)
------ Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ (bass enters)
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ Superstar (band enters)
Do you think you're what they say you are?
Jesus Christ Superstar (strings enter)
Do you think you're what they say you are?
(Judas sings over Choir and Girls - lyrics below)
(Choir continues 2½ more times -- Girls sing over Choir)
Choir: Jesus Christ, Girls: Only want to know,
------ Jesus Christ ------ Only want to know,
Who are you? Only want to know,

Who are you? Only want to know,
What have you sacrificed? Only want to know now
Choir: Jesus Christ, Girls: Only want to know,

Do you think you're what Only want to know,
they say you are? Only want to know now
(Judas sings over Choir and Girls)

4-4 The Crucifixion
-----------------------
Jesus: God forgive them - they don't know what they're doing
------ Who is my mother? Where is my mother?
My God My God why have you forgotten me?
Oh God, I'm thirsty...
It is finished...
Father into your hands I commend my spirit!
