Lyrics

My God, I saw him
 He looked three-quarters dead
 And he was so bad
 I had to turn my head
 You beat him so hard
 That he was bent and lame
 And I know who everybody's
 Going to blame
 I don't believe he knows
 I acted for our good
 I'd save him all the suffering
 If I could
 Don't believe
 Our good
 Save him
 If I could
 Cut the confessions
 Forget the excuses
 I don't understand why
 You're filled with remorse
 All that you've said
 Has come true with a vengence
 The mob has turned against him
 You've backed the right horse
 What you have done
 Will be the saving of Israel
 You'll be remembered forever
 For this
 And not only that
 You've been paid for your efforts
 Pretty good wages
 For one little kiss
 Christ! I know you can't hear me
 But I only did what you wanted me to
 Christ! I'd sell out the nation
 For I have been saddled
 With the murder of you
 I have been spattered
 With innocent blood
 I should be dragged
 Through the slime and the mud
 I have been spattered
 With innocent blood
 I should be dragged
 Through the slime and the mud
 I don't know how to love him
 I don't know why he moves me
 He's a man
 He's just a man
 He's not a king
 He's just the same
 As anyone I know
 He scares me so!
 When he's cold and dead
 Will he let me be?
 Does he love me too?
 Does he care for me?
 Ohhhhh...
 My mind is darkness now
 My god I am sick
 I've been used
 And you knew
 All the time
 God I'll never ever know
 Why you chose me for your crime
 For your foul bloody crime
 You have murdered me!
 You have murdered me!
 So long, Judas Poor old Judas
