Jesus Christ Superstar - Damned For All Time/ Blood Money Songtexte
Judas:
Now if I help you
It matters that you see
This sorta kind of things are coming hard to me
It's taken me some time
To work out what to do
I waited the whole thing up
Before I came to you
I have not thought at all
about my own reward
I really didn't come here
Of my own accord
Just don't say I'm
Damned for all time!
I came because I had to
I'm the one who saw
Jesus can't control it
Like he did before
And furthermore I know
That Jesus thinks so too
Jesus wouldn't mind that I was here with you
I have not thought at all
about my own reward
I really didn't come here
Of my own accord
Just don't say I'm
Damned for all time!
Annas, you're a friend
A holy man and wise
Caiaphas, my friend
I know you sympathise
Why are we the prophets?
Why are we the ones?
Who see the sad solution
Now what must be done?
I have not thought at all
about my own reward
I really didn't come here
Of my own accord
Just don't say I'm
Damned for all time!
Annas:
Cut the protesting
Forget the excuses
We want information
Get up off the floor
Caiaphas:
We have the papers
We need to arrest him
You know his movements
We know the law
Annas:
Your help in this matter
Won't go unrewarded
Caiaphas:
We'll pay you in silver
Cash on the nail
We just need to know
Where the soldiers can find him
With no crowd around him
Then we can't fail
Judas:
I don't want your blood money
Caiaphas:
Oh, that doesn't matter
Our expenses are good
Judas:
I don't need your blood money
Annas:
But you might as well take it
We think that you should
Caiaphas:
Think of the things
You can do with that money
Choose any charity
Give to the poor
We've noted your motives
We've noted your feelings
This isn't blood money
It's-
Annas: (spoken)
A fee
Caiaphas:
A fee nothing more
Judas:
On Thursday night
You'll find him where you want him
Far from the crowds
In the garden of Gethesmene
