This Jesus Must Die - Remastered 2021

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
Hossana superstar
Hossana superstar
Hossana superstar
Hossana 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
That 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
One thing I'll say for him
Jesus is cool
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 minute
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
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 a 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
