This Jesus Must Die Lyrics

Priest 1:
Good Caiaphas, the council waits for you
The Pharisees and priests are here for you

Caiaphas:
Ah gentlemen, you know why we are here
We've not much time, and quite a problem here

Mob:
Hosanna, Superstar
Hosanna, Superstar
Hosanna, Superstar
Hosanna, Superstar

Annas:
Listen to that howling mob of blockheads in the street
A trick or two with lepers, and the whole town's on its feet

Priests:
He is dangerous

Mob:
Jesus Christ Superstar

Priests:
He is dangerous

Mob:
Tell us that you're who they say you are

Priest 2:
That man is in town right now to whip up some support

Priest 3:
A rabble rousing mission that I think we must abort

Priests:
He is dangerous

Mob:
Jesus Christ Superstar

Priests:
He is dangerous

Priest 2:
Look Caiaphas, they're right outside our yard

Priest 3:
Quick Caiaphas, go call the Roman guard

Caiaphas:
No, wait!
We need a more permanent solution to our problem

Annas:
What then to do about Jesus of Nazareth?
Miracle wonder man, hero of foolsJesus Christ Superstar - This Jesus Must Die - http://motolyrics.com/jesus-christ-superstar/this-jesus-must-die-lyrics.html

Priest 3:
No riots, no army, no fighting, no slogans

Caiaphas:
One thing I'll say for Him, Jesus is cool

Annas:
We dare not leave Him to His own devices
His half-witted fans will get out of control

Four Priests:
But how can we stop him?
His glamor increases
By leaps every minute, He's top of the poll

Caiaphas:
I see bad things arising
The crowd crown Him king, which the Romans would ban
I see blood and destruction
Our elimination because of one man
Blood and destruction because of one man

Priests:
Because, because, because of one man

Caiaphas:
Our elimination because of one man

Priests:
Because, because, because of one, 'cause of one, 'cause of one man

Priest 3:
What then to do about this Jesus mania?

Annas:
Now how do we deal with a Carpenter King?

Two Priests:
Where do we start with the man who is bigger
Than John was when John did His baptism thing?

Caiaphas:
Fools! You have no perception!
The stakes we are gambling are frighteningly high
We must crush Him completely
So like John before Him, this Jesus must die
For the sake of the nation, this Jesus must die

Priests:
Must die, must die, this Jesus must die

Caiaphas:
So like John before Him, this Jesus must die

Priests;
Must die, must die, this Jesus must, Jesus must, Jesus must die
