Tekst piosenki 'Damned For All Time / Blood Money' wykonawcy Jesus Christ Superstar

JUDAS

Now if I help you, it matters that you see
These sordid kinda things are coming hard to me
It's taken me some time to work out what to do
I weighed the whole thing out before I came to you
I have no 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 no 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 worldly 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 - know what must be done?
I have no 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 of 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

ANNAS

With no crowd around him

CAIAPHAS

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 could 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 a

ANNAS

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 Gethsemane

CHOIR

Well done Judas. Good old Judas
