we need a more permanent solution

to our problem.

What then to do about

Jesus of Nazareth.

Miracle wonder-man

hero of fools.

No riots, no army

no fighting, no slogans.

Infantile sermons

the multitude drools.

We dare not leave him

to his own devices.

His half-witted fans

will get out of control.

But how can we stop him

his glamour increases

by leaps every minute

he's top of the poll.

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.

Because, because

because of one man.

Our elimination

because of one man.

Because, because

because of one

'cause of one

'cause of one man.

What then to do about

this Jesus mania.

How do we deal

with the carpenter king.

Where do we start

with a man who is bigger.

Than John was when John

did his baptism thing.

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.

Must die, must die

this Jesus must die.

So like John before him

this Jesus must die.

Must die, must die

this Jesus must.

Jesus must

Jesus must die.

Hosanna heysanna

sana sana ho sana

heysanna hosanna.

Hey J.C., J.C.

won't you fight for me.

Sanna hosanna

hey superstar.

Tell the rabble to be quiet

we anticipate a riot.

This common crowd

is much too loud.

Tell the mob

who sing your song.

That they are fools

and they are wrong.

They are a curse

they should disperse.

Hosanna heysanna

sanna sanna hosanna

heysanna hosanna.

Hey J.C., J.C.

you're alright by me.

Sanna hosanna

hey superstar.

Why waste your breath

moaning at the crowd.

Nothing can be done

to stop the shouting.

If every tongue was still

the noise would still continue.

The rocks

and stones themselves

would start to sing.

Hosanna heysanna

sanna sanna hosanna

heysanna hosanna.

Hey J.C., J.C.

won't you fight for me.

Sanna hosanna

hey superstar.

Sing me a song

but not for me alone.

Sing out for yourselves

for you are blessed.

There is not one of you

who cannot win the kingdom.

The slow, the suffering

the quick the dead.

Hosanna heysanna ohh

sanna sanna hosanna

heysanna hosanna.

Hey J.C., J.C.

won't you die for me.

Sanna hosanna

hey superstar.

Super star.

Christ you know I love you

did you see I waved.

I believe in you and God

so tell me that I'm saved.

Christ you know I love you

did you see I waved.

I believe in you and God

so tell me that I'm saved.

Jesus I am with you

touch me, touch me Jesus.

Jesus I am on your side
