My mind is clearer now.
A-at last all too we'ell 
I can see where we all soon will be.

If you strip awa-ay 
The myth fro'om the man
You will see where we all soon will be.

Je'e-esus!

You've started to believe 
The things they say of you,
You really do believe 
This talk of God is [bad word] ue!

And all the good you've done 
Will soon get swept away,
You've begun to matter more 
Than the things you sa-h-ay!

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 wro-ong.

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 eee-eevery word you say today
Gets twisted 'round some other way
And they'll hurt you if they think you've la-aied.

Nazareth, your famous son
Should have stayed a great unknown,
Like his father carving wood
He'd have made goo-ud.

Tables, chairs and oaken chests
Would have suited Jesus best -
He'd have caused nobody harm,
No one ala-arm!

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-aa-aa-ah?!

I am frightened by the crowd
For we are getting much too loud,
And they'll [bad word] us if we go too fa-ar,
If we go-o too-u-u fa-ar-aaaa-aa-aa-ooo!

< Interlude: strings, violins & claps >

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 ho-oo-oo-o-o-o-our!

All your followers are blind,
Too much Heaven on their minds!
It was beautiful but now it's sour...
Yes, it's a-all go-o-one so-o-oooo-oo-oo-o-o-our!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, o-o! 
Ah-ah-ah-ah, a-a!
