Jerusalem, Sunday

PRIEST 1
Good Caiaphas the council waits for you
The Pharisees and priests are here for you
CAIAPHAS
Ah gentlemen – you know why we are here
We've not much time and quite a problem here
MOB (outside)
Hosanna! Superstar!
ANNAS
Listen to that howling mob of blockheads in the street!
A trick or two with lepers and the whole town's on its feet
ALL
He is dangerous
MOB (outside)
Jesus Christ Superstar -
Tell us that you're who they say you are
ALL
He is dangerous
PRIEST 2
The man is in town right now to whip up some support
PRIEST 3
A rabble rousing mission that I think we must abort
ALL
He is dangerous!
MOB (outside)
Jesus Christ Superstar!
ALL
He is dangerous!
PRIEST 2
Look Caiaphas – they're right outside our yard
PRIEST 3
Quick Caiaphas – go call the Roman guard
CAIAPHAS
No wait – we need a more permanent solution
to our problem ...
ANNAS
What then to do about Jesus of Nazareth
Miracle wonderman – hero of fools?
PRIEST 3
No riots, no army, no fighting, no slogans
CAIAPHAS
One thing I'll say for him – Jesus is cool
ANNAS
We dare not leave him to his own devices
His half-witted fans will get out of control
PRIEST 3
But how can we stop him? His glamour increases
By leaps every minute – he's top of the poll
CAIAPHAS
I see bad things arising –
The crowd crown him king,
Which the Romans would ban
I see blood and destruction,
Our elimination, because of one man
Blood and destruction, because of one man
ALL
Because, because, because of one man
CAIAPHAS
Our elimination, because of one man
ALL
Because, because, because of one, 'cause of one, 'cause of one man
PRIEST 3
What then to do about this Jesusmania?
ANNAS
How do we deal with the carpenter king?
PRIEST 3
Where do we start with a man who is bigger
Then John was when John did his Baptism thing?
CAIAPHAS
Fools! You have no perception!
The stakes we are gambling are frighteningly high!
We must crush him completely -
So like John before him, this Jesus must die
For the sake of the nation this Jesus must die
ALL
Must die, must die, this Jesus must die
CAIAPHAS
So like John before him, this Jesus must die
ALL
Must die, must die, this Jesus must, Jesus must, Jesus must die!

Hosanna.

CROWD
Hosanna Heysanna Sanna Sanna Ho
Sanna Hey Sanna Ho Sanna
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 Heysanna Sanna Sanna Ho
Sanna Hey Sanna Ho Sanna
Hey JC, JC won't you are 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 them selves would start to sing:
CROWD (with JESUS)
Hosanna Heysanna Sanna Sanna Ho
Sanna Hey Sanna Ho Sanna
Hey JC, JC won't you fight for me?
Sanna Ho Sanna Hey Superstar

Simon Zealotes. / Poor Jerusalem.

CROWD
Christ you know I love you
Did you see I waved?
I believe in you and God
So tell me that I'm saved
Christ you know I love you
Did you see I waved?
I believe in you and God
So tell me that I'm saved
Jesus I am with you
Touch me touch me Jesus
Jesus I am on your side
Kiss me kiss me Jesus
SIMON ZEALOTES
Christ, what more do you need to convince you
That you've made it and you're easily as strong
As the filth from Rome who rape our country
And who've terrorized our people for so long?
CROWD
Christ you know I love you
Did you see I waved?
I believe in you and God
So tell me that I'm saved
Christ you know I love you
Did you see I waved?
I believe in you and God
So tell me that I'm saved
Jesus I am with you
Touch me touch me Jesus
Jesus I am on your side
Kiss me kiss me Jesus
SIMON ZEALOTES
There must be over fifty thousand
Screaming love and more for you
Everyone of fifty thousand
Would do whatever you ask him to
Keep them yelling their devotion
But add a touch of hate at Rome
You will rise to a greater power
We will win ourselves a home
You'll get the power and the glory
For ever and ever and ever
Amen! Amen!
JESUS
Neither you Simon, nor the fifty thousand
Nor the Romans, nor the Jews,
Nor Judas, nor the Twelve,
Nor the Priests, nor the Scribes
Nor doomed Jerusalem itself,
Understand what power is
Understand what glory is
Understand at all ... understand at all
If you knew all that I knew, my poor Jerusalem
You'd see the truth, but you close your eyes
But you close your eyes
While you live your troubles are many, poor Jerusalem
To conquer death you only have to die
You only have to die

Pilate's dream.

Pontius Pilate's House, Monday

PILATE
I dreamed I met a Galilean
A most amazing man
He had that look you very rarely find
The haunting hunted kind

I asked him to say what had happened
How it all began
I asked again – he never said a word
As if he hadn't heard

And next the room was full of wild and angry men
They seemed to hate this man -
They fell on him and then
They disappeared again

Than I saw thousands of millions
Crying for this man
And then I heard them mentioning my name
And leaving me the blame

The temple.

MONEYLENDERS AND MERCHANTS
Roll on up – for my price is down
Come on in – for the best in town
Take your pick of the finest wine
Lay your bets on this bird of mine
Roll on up – for my price is down
Come on in – for the best in town
Take pour pick of the finest wine
Lay your bets on this bird of mine

Name your price I got everything
Came and buy it's all going fast
Borrow cash on the finest terms
Hurry now while stocks still last
Roll on up – for my price is down
Come on in – for the best in town
Take your pick of the finest wine
Lay your bets on this bird of mine
