PILATE
You’re a fool Jesus Christ — how can I help you?

MOB
Pilate! Crucify him!
Remember Caesar—-you have a duty!
To keep the peace so crucify him!
Remember Caesar — you’ll be demoted, you’ll be deported
Crucify him!

PILATE
Don’t let me stop your great self-destruction
Die if you want to you misguided martyr
I wash my hands of your demolition
Die if you want to you innocent puppet!

SUPERSTAR

VOICE OF JUDAS
Every time 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 had it planned
Why d’you chose such a backward time
and such a strange land?
If you’d come today you would have reached a whole nation
Israel in 4 BC had no mass communication
Don’t get me wrong — I only want to know

CHOIR
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you what have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ Superstar
Do you think you’re what they say you are?

VOICE 0F JUDAS
Tell me what you think about your friends at the top
Who’d you think besides yourself’s the pick of the crop?
Buddha was he where it’s at? Is he where you are?
Could Mahomet move as mountain or was that just PR?
Did you mean to die like that? Was it a mistake or
Did you know your Messy death would be a record breaker?
Don’t get me wrong–I only want to know

CHOIR
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you what have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ Superstar
Do you think you’re what they say you are?

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?
I am thirsty
It is finished
Father into your hands I commend my spirit

Conclusion: JOHN 19:41
