Pilate And Christ

(album: Jesus Christ Superstar - 1970)

[Pilate:]
Who is this broken man cluttering up my hallway?
Who is this unfortunate?

[Annas:]
Someone Christ king of the Jews

[Pilate:]
Oh, so this is Jesus Christ, I am really quite surprised
You look so small not a king at all
We all know that you are news but are you king
King of the Jews?

[Jesus:]
That's what you say

[Pilate:]
What do you mean by that? That is not an answer
You're deep in trouble, friend
Someone Christ king of the Jews
How can someone in your state be so cool about your fate?
An amazing thing this silent king
Since you come from Galilee, then you need not come to me
You're Herod's race! You're Herod's case!

[Mob:]
Hosanna Hey Sanna Sanna Sanna Ho
Sanna Hey Sanna Ho and how
Hey JC, JC, please explain to me
You had everything, where is it now?
