Hosanna

(album: Jesus Christ Superstar - 1970)

[Crowd:]
Hosanna, hey sanna, sanna sanna ho
Sanna hey, sanna hosanna
Hey JC, JC, won't you smile at me?
Sanna ho, sanna hey, Superstar

[Caiaphas:]
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

[Crowd:]
Hosanna, hey sanna, sanna sanna ho
Sanna hey, sanna ho sanna
Hey JC, JC, you're alright by me
Sanna ho, sanna hey, Superstar

[Jesus:]
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

[Crowd (with Jesus):]
Hosanna, hey sanna, sanna sanna ho
Sanna hey, sanna ho sanna
Hey JC, JC, won't you fight for me?
Sanna ho, sanna hey, Superstar
