Текст песни

[Pilate:]
And so the king is once again my guest!
And why is this? Was Herod unimpressed?

[Caiaphas:]
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

[Pilate:]
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?

[Jesus:]
I have got no kingdom in this world -
I`m through

[Crowd:]
Talk to me, Jesus Christ

[Jesus:]
There maybe a kingdom for me somewhere -
If you only knew

[Pilate:]
Then you are a king?

[Jesus:]
It's you that say I am
I look for truth
And find that I get damned

[Pilate:]
But what is truth?
Is truth unchanging law?
We both have truth -
Are mine the same as yours?

[Crowd:]
Crucify him! Crucify him!

[Pilate:]
What do you mean?
You'd crucify your king?

[Crowd:]
We have no king but Caesar!

[Pilate:]
He's done no wrong -
No not the slightest thing

[Crowd:]
We have no king but Caesar! Crucify him!

[Pilate:]
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

[Crowd:]
Crucify! Crucify! Crucify!
( ... 39 lashes ... )

[Pilate:]
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 hold your life in my hands?
How can you stay quiet?
I don't believe you understand

[Jesus:]
You have nothing in your hands
Any power you have
Comes to you from far beyond
Everthing is fixed
And you can't change it

[Pilate:]
You're a fool, Jesus Christ -
How can I help you?

[Crowd:]
Pilate! Crucify him! Crusify!
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!

[Pilate:]
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!
