Jesus Christ Superstar: Live in Concert

---

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've started to believe

the things they say of you.

You really do believe

this talk 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 the 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 ev'ry word

you say today

gets twisted 'round

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 wood

he'd have made good.

Tables, chairs and oaken chest

would have suited Jesus best.

He'd have cause nobody harm

no one alarm.

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 am frightened

by the crowd.

For they 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 our chances

weakening with ev'ry hour.

All your followers are blind

too much heaven on their minds.

It was beautiful

but now it's sour

yes it's all gone sour.

Listen Jesus

to the warning I give

please remember that

I want us to live.

So listen, Jesus,

to the warning I give.

Oh, ah, I just want us to live

it's all gone sour.

Save tomorrow for tomorrow

Why should you want to know

obsessed with fighting?

Times and fates you can't defy

if you knew

the path we're riding.

You'd understand it

less than I.

Mary that is good

while you prattle

through your supper.

Where and when

and who and how.

She alone has

tried to give me

what I need

right here and now.

It seems to me

a strange thing

mystifying.

That a man like you

can waste his time

on women of her kind.

Now I can understand that she

amuses.

But you let her kiss you and

stroke your hair it's hardly in

your line.

It's not that I object

to her profession.

But she doesn't fit in well

with what we teach and say.

It doesn't help us

if you're inconsistent.

Yhey only need a small excuse

to put us all away.

Who are you to criticise her

who are you to despise her?

Leave her, leave her

let her be now.

Leave her, leave her

she's with me now.

If your slate is clean

then you can throw stones.

If your slate is not

then leave her alone.

I'm amazed that men like you

could be so shallow, thick and

slow.

There is not a man among you

who knows or cares if I come or go.

No you're wrong

you're very wrong.

No you're wrong

you're very wrong.

No you're wrong

you're very wrong.

No you're wrong

you're very wrong.

How can you say that

how can you say that?

How can you say that

how can you say that?

Not one

not one of you.

Try not to get worried

try not to turn on to

problems that upset you.

Oh

don't you know

everything's alright yes

everything's fine.

And we want you to

sleep well tonight.

Let the world

turn without you tonight.
