(Judas)

Now if I help you

It matters that you see

This sordid kind of things are

Coming hard to me

It's taken me some time

To work out what to do

I weighed the whole thing up

Before I came to you

I had no thought at all

Of my own reward

I really didn't come here

Of my own accord

Just don't say I'm

Damned for all time!



I came because I had to

Because I'm the one who saw

Jesus can't control it

Like he did before

And furthermore I know

That Jesus thinks so too

Jesus wouldn't mind

That I was here with you

I have no thought at all

Of my own reward

I really didn't come here

Of my own accord

Just don't say I'm

Damned for all time!



Annas, you're a friend

A worldly man and wise

Caiaphas, my friend

I know you sympathise



Why are we the prophets?

Why are we the ones?

Who see the sad solution

Know what must be done?

I have no thought at all

Of my own reward

I really didn't come here

Of my own accord

Just don't say I'm

Damned for all time!



(Annas)



Cut the protesting

Forget the excuses

We want information

Get up off the floor



(Caiaphas)



We have the papers

We need to arrest him

You know his movements

We know the law



(Annas)



Your help in this matter

Won't go unrewarded



(Caiaphas)



We'll pay you in silver

Cash on the nail

We just need to know

Where the soldiers can find him

With no crowd around him

Then we can't fail



(Judas)



I don't need your blood money -
