作曲 : Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice
My mind is clearer now
At last, all too well, I can see where we all soon will be
If you strip away the myth from the man
You will see where we all soon will be
Jesus, you're starting to believe the things they say
You really do believe this type of God is true
And all the good you've done will soon get swept away
You've begun to matter more than the things you say
Listen, Jesus, I don't like what I see
All I ask is that you listen to me
And remember, I've been your right-hand man all along
You have set them all on fire
They think they've found a new messiah
And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong
I remember when this whole thing began
No talk of God, then we called you a man
And believe me, my admiration for you hasn't died
But every word you say today gets twisted around some other way
And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied
Nazareth, your famous son, should have stayed a great unknown like his father
Carving would have fit me good
Table chairs and open chests would have suited Jesus best
He'd have caused nobody harm, no one alone
Listen, Jesus, do you care for your race?
Don't you see we must keep in our place?
We are occupied
Have you forgotten how put down we are?
I'm frightened by the crowd, for we are getting much too loud
And they'll crush us if we go too far
If we go too far
Listen, Jesus, to the warning I give
Please remember that I want us to live
But it's sad to see your chances weakening with every hour
Your followers are blind
There's too much heaven on their minds
It was beautiful, but now it's sour
Yes, it's all gone sour
Oh, listen to the warning I give
Please remember that I want us to live
So come on, come on, come on, listen to me
Oh, listen to me, Jesus, Jesus
It's all gone, gone sour
