[Jesus Christ Superstar Original Studio Cast, Murray Head, Victor Brox - Judas’ Death lyrics]
My God! I saw him
He looked three-quarters dead!
And he was so bad I had to turn my head
You beat him so hard that
He was bent and lame
And I know who everybody's gonna blame
I don't believe he knows I
Acted for our good
I'd save him all this suffering if I could!
Don't believe our good save him if I could
Cut the confessions, forget the excuses
I don't understand why you're
Filled with remorse
All that you've said has come
True with a vengeance
The mob turned against him
You backed the right horse
What you have done will be
The saving of Israel
You'll be remembered forever for this
And not only that
You've been paid for your efforts
Pretty good wages for one little kiss
Christ! I know you can't hear me
But I only did what you wanted me to
Christ! I'd sell out the nation
For I have been saddled with
The murder of you
I have been spattered with innocent blood
I shall be dragged through the
Slime and the mud
I have been spattered with innocent blood
I shall be dragged through the slime and the
Slime and the slime and the mud!
I don't know how to love him
I don't know why he moves me
He's a man - he's just a man
He's not a king - he's just the same
As anyone I know he scares me so
When he's cold and dead, will he let me be?
Does he love me too? Does he care for me?
My mind is in darkness now - my God
I am sick! I've been used!
And you knew all the time!
God! I'll never ever know why you
Chose me for your crime
Your foul, bloody crime!
You have murdered me! You have murdered me!
Poor old Judas so long, Judas
He looked three-quarters dead!
And he was so bad I had to turn my head
You beat him so hard that
He was bent and lame
And I know who everybody's gonna blame
I don't believe he knows I
Acted for our good
I'd save him all this suffering if I could!
Don't believe our good save him if I could
Cut the confessions, forget the excuses
I don't understand why you're
Filled with remorse
All that you've said has come
True with a vengeance
The mob turned against him
You backed the right horse
What you have done will be
The saving of Israel
You'll be remembered forever for this
And not only that
You've been paid for your efforts
Pretty good wages for one little kiss
Christ! I know you can't hear me
But I only did what you wanted me to
Christ! I'd sell out the nation
For I have been saddled with
The murder of you
I have been spattered with innocent blood
I shall be dragged through the
Slime and the mud
I have been spattered with innocent blood
I shall be dragged through the slime and the
Slime and the slime and the mud!
I don't know how to love him
I don't know why he moves me
He's a man - he's just a man
He's not a king - he's just the same
As anyone I know he scares me so
When he's cold and dead, will he let me be?
Does he love me too? Does he care for me?
My mind is in darkness now - my God
I am sick! I've been used!
And you knew all the time!
God! I'll never ever know why you
Chose me for your crime
Your foul, bloody crime!
You have murdered me! You have murdered me!
Poor old Judas so long, Judas
