Judas's Death

Judas: My God I saw him!
he looked almost dead
you beat him so hard I had to turn my head!
You beat him so hard that he was bent and lame!
And I know who everybody's gonna blame!
I don't believe he knows I acted for all good.
I'd save him all his suffering if I could.
Don't believe I wouldn't do it!
And I'd save him if I could!

Annais: Cut the confessions forget the excuses
I don't understand why you're filled with remorse.
All that you said has come true with a vengence.
The mob turned against him, you backed the right horse.

Caiaphas: What you have done will be the saving of everyone
you'll be remembered forever for this.
Not only that you've been payed for your efforts,
pretty good wages for one little kiss.

Judas: 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 shall be dragged through the slime and the mud!
I have been spattered with innocent blood!
I shall be dragged through the slime and the slime and 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 is 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 does he love me too?
Does he care for me?

My mind..is in darkness.
God God I'm sick! I've been used!
And you knew all the time.
God, God I'll never know, why you chose me for your crime,
you're low bloody crime.

Chorus: So long Judas...poor old Judas...
So long Judas...poor old Judas...
So long Judas...poor old Judas...

Judas: You have murdered me! Murdered me murdered me.... (and so on)

Chorus: So long Judas...poor old Judas...
So long Judas...poor old Judas...
So long Judas...poor old Judas...
