And so the king is once again my guest And why is this? Was Herod unimpressed? We turn to Rome to sentence Nazareth We have no law to put a man to death We need him crucified It's all you have to do We need him crucified It's all you have to do Talk to me, Jesus Christ You have been brought here Manacled, beaten by your own people Do you have the first idea why you deserve it? Listen, King of the Jews Where is your kingdom? Look at me, am I a Jew? I have got no kingdom in this world And through, through, through (Talk to me, Jesus Christ) There may be a kingdom for me somewhere If I only knew And you're a king? It's you that say I am I look for truth And find that I get damned And what is truth? Is truth a changing law? We both have truths Are mine the same as yours? Crucify him! Crucify him! What do you mean? You'd crucify your king? We have no king but Caesar! He's done no wrong No, not the slightest thing We have no king but Caesar! Crucify him! Well, this is new Respect for Caesar! Until now, this has been noticeably lacking Who is this Jesus? Why is he different? You Jews produce Messiahs by the sackful We need him crucified It's all you have to do We need him crucified It's all you have to do Talk to me, Jesus Christ Look at your Jesus Christ I agree he's mad Ought to be locked up But that is not a reason to destroy him He's a sad little man Not a king or god Not a thief I need a crime! Kill him! He says he's God He's a blasphemer He'll conquer you And us and even Caesar! Ahhh! Crucify him! Crucify him! Behold the man! Behold your shattered king (We have no king but Caesar) Hypocrites! You hate us more than him (We have no king but Caesar) Crucify him! I see no reason I find no evil This man is harmless, so why does he upset you? He's just misguided Thinks he's important But to keep you vultures happy I shall flog him Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify! One Two Three Four Five Six Seven Eight Nine Ten Eleven Twelve Thirteen Fourteen Fifteen Sixteen Seventeen Eighteen Nineteen Twenty 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39! Where are you from, Jesus? What do you want, Jesus? Tell me! You've got to be careful You could be dead soon Could well be Why do you not speak When I have your life in my hands? How can you stay quiet? I don't believe you understand! You have nothing in your hands Any power you have Comes to you from far beyond Everything is fixed! And you can't change it You're a fool, Jesus Christ How can I help you? (Pilate, crucify him, crucify!) 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! 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! 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! 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!
