"King Herod's Song" from
Jesus Christ Superstar (c) 1970
HEROD:
Jesus I am overjoyed to meet you face to face
You've been getting quite a name all around the place
Healing cripples raising from the dead
And now I understand you're God atleast
that's what you've said
So you are the Christ you're the great Jesus Christ
Prove to me that you're divine - change my water into wine
That's all you need do and I'll know that it's all true
C'mon King of the Jews
Jesus you just won't beleive the the hit you've made round here
You are all we talk about the wonder of the year
Oh what a pity if it's all a lie
Still I'm sure you could rock the cynics if you try
So you are the Christ you're the great Jesus Christ
Prove to me that you're no fool walk across
my swimming pool
If you do that for me then I'll let you go free
C'mon King of the Jews
I only ask things I'd ask any superstar
What is it that you have got that puts you where you are?
I am wating yes I'm a captive fan
I am dying to be shown that you are not just any man
so if you are the Christ yes the great Jesus Christ
Feed my household with this bread -
you can do it on you head
Or has something gone wrong Why do you take so long?
C'mon King of the Jews
Hey! Aren't you scared of me Christ Mr. Wonderful Christ!
You're a joke you're not the Lord -
you are nothing but a fraud
Yake him away - he's got nothing to say!
Get out you King of the Jews! Get ouf of my Life!
