Jesus Christ Superstar (Remastered 2005)
This Jesus Must Die
Good Caiaphas, the council waits for you
The Pharisees and priests are here for you
Ah gentlemen, you know why we are here
We've not much time, and quite a problem here
Hosanna! Superstar!
Hosanna! Superstar!
Hosanna! Superstar!
Hosanna! Superstar!
Listen to that howling mob of blockheads in the street!
A trick or two with lepers, and the whole town's on its feet
He is dangerous!
Jesus Christ Superstar!
He is dangerous!
Tell us that you're who they say you are
The man is in town right now to whip up some support
A rabble rousing mission that I think we must abort!
He is dangerous!
Jesus Christ Superstar!
He is dangerous!
Look Caiaphas, they're right outside our yard
Quick Caiaphas, go call the Roman guard
No, wait!
We need a more permanent solution to our problem
What then to do about Jesus of Nazareth?
Miracle wonderman, hero of fools
No riots, no army, no fighting, no slogans
Infantile sermons, the multitude drools
We dare not leave him to his own devices
His half-witted fans will get out of control
But how can we stop him?
His glamour increases
By leaps every moment; he's top of the poll
I see bad things arising
The crowd crown him king; which the Romans would ban
I see blood and destruction
Our elimination because of one man!
Blood and destruction because of one man
Because, because, because of one man
Our elimination because of one man!
Because, because, because of one, 'cause of one, 'cause of one man
What then to do about this Jesus-mania?
How do we deal with the carpenter king?
Where do we start with a man who is bigger
Than John was when John did his baptism thing?
Fools, you have no perception!
The stakes we are gambling are frighteningly high!
We must crush him completely
So like John before him, this Jesus must die
For the sake of the nation, this Jesus must die
Must die, must die, this Jesus must die!
So like John before him, this Jesus must die!
Must die, must die, this Jesus must, Jesus must, Jesus must die!
The Pharisees and priests are here for you
Ah gentlemen, you know why we are here
We've not much time, and quite a problem here
Hosanna! Superstar!
Hosanna! Superstar!
Hosanna! Superstar!
Hosanna! Superstar!
Listen to that howling mob of blockheads in the street!
A trick or two with lepers, and the whole town's on its feet
He is dangerous!
Jesus Christ Superstar!
He is dangerous!
Tell us that you're who they say you are
The man is in town right now to whip up some support
A rabble rousing mission that I think we must abort!
He is dangerous!
Jesus Christ Superstar!
He is dangerous!

So like John before him, this Jesus must die!
Must die, must die, this Jesus must, Jesus must, Jesus must die!
