Listen Jesus I don't like what I see
All I ask is that you listen to me
And remember I've been your right hand man all along
You have set them all on fire
They think they've found the new Messiah,
And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong
/I remember when this whole thing began
No talk of God, then we called you a man
And believe me my admiration for you hasn't died
But ev'ry word you say today
Gets twisted 'round some other way
And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied
/Nazareth your famous son
Should have stayed a great unknown
Like his father carving wood
He'd have made good
Tables, chairs and oaken chests
Would have suited Jesus best
He'd have caused nobody harm, no-one alarm!
/I only want to say
If there is a way
Take this cup away from me
For I don't want to taste its poison
Feel it burn me
I have changed, I'm not as sure
As when we started
/Then I was inspired
Now I'm sad and tired
Listen surely I've exceeded expectations
Tried for three years, seems like thirty
Could you ask as much from any other man?
/But if I die
See the saga through
And do the things you ask of me
Let them hate me, hit me, hurt me
Nail me to their tree!
/I don't know how to love him
What to do, how to move him
I've been changed
Yes, really changed
In these past few days
When I've seen myself
I seem like someone else
I don't know how to take this
I don't see how he moves me
He's a man, he's just a man
and I've had so many men before
In very many ways
He's just one more
/Should I bring him down?
Should I scream and shout?
Should I speak of love?
Let my feelings out
I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about?
Don't you think it's rather funny
I should be in this position?
I'm the one
Who's always been
So calm, so cool
No lover's fool
Running ev'ry show
He scares me so
/Try not to get worried
Try not to turn on to
Problems that upset you
Oh, don't you know?
Ev'rything's alright
Yes, ev'rything's fine
And we want you to sleep well tonight
Let the world turn without you tonight
If we try we'll get by
So forget all about us tonight
/Sleep and I shall soothe you
Calm you and anoint you
Myrrh for your hot forehead
Oh, then you'll feel
Ev'rything's alright
Yes, ev'rything's fine
And it's cool and the ointment's sweet
For the fire in your head and feet
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
And relax, think of nothing tonight.
/Woman your fine ointment
Brand new and expensive
Could have been saved for the poor
Why has it been wasted
We could have raised maybe
Three hundred silver pieces or more
People who are hungry
People who are starving
Matter more than your feet and hair
/Try not to get worried
Try not to turn on to
Problems that upset you
Oh, don't you know
Ev'rything's alright
Yes, ev'rything's fine
And we want you to sleep well tonight
Let the world turn without you tonight
If we try we'll get by
So forget all about us tonight
/Ev'rytime 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
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.
/Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Only want to know
Only want to know
Only want to know
Only want to know
/(Repeat) Jesus Christ Superstar!
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
(Repeat) Jesus Christ Superstar!
Do you think you're what they say you are?
/Tell me what you think about
Your friends at the top
Who d'you think besides yourself's
The pick of the crop
Buddah was he where it's at?
Is he where you are?
Could Mahomet move a mountain?
Or was that just P. R.
Did you mean to die like that?
Was that a mistake?
Or did you know your messy death
Would be a record breaker?
/Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Only want to know
Only want to know
Only want to know
Only want to know
/(Repeat) Jesus Christ Superstar!
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ Superstar!
Do you think you're what they say you are? (Repeat)
Jesus Christ Superstar!
Jesus Christ Superstar!
Jesus! |
