Jesus Christ Superstar - Heaven On Their Minds lyrics
(Judas)
My mind is clearer now
At last
All too well
I can see
Where we all
Soon will be
If you strip away
The myth
>From the man
You will see
Where we all
Soon will be
Jesus!
You`ve started to believe
The things they say of you
You really do believe
This talk of God is true
And all the good you`ve done
Will soon be swept away
You`ve begun to matter more
Than the things you say
Listen Jesus
I don`t like what I see
All I ask is that you listen to me
And remember
I`ve been your right hand man all along
You have set them all on fire
They think they`ve found the new Messiah
And they`ll hurt you when they find they`re wrong
I remember when this whole thing began
No talk of God then, we called you a man
And believe me
My admiration for you hasn`t died
But every word you say today
Gets twisted `round some other way
And they`ll hurt you if they think you`ve lied
Nazareth`s most famous son
Should have stayed a great unknown
Like his father carving wood
He`d have made good
Tables, chairs and oaken chests
Would have suited Jesus best
He`d have caused nobody harm
No one alarm
Listen Jesus, do you care for your race?
Don`t you see we must keep in our place?
We are occupied
Have you forgotten how put down we are?
I am frightened by the crowd
For we are getting much too loud
And they`ll crush us if we go too far
If we go too far
Listen Jesus to the warning I give
Please remember that I want us to live
But it`s sad to see our chances weakening with ev`ry hour
All your followers are blind
Too much heaven on their minds
It was beautiful, but now it`s sour
Yes it`s all gone sour
Ah --- ah ah ah --- ah
God Jesus, it`s all gone sour
Listen Jesus to the warning I give
Please remember that I want us to live
So come on, come on, listen to me.
Ah --- ah
Come on, listen, listen to me.
Come on and listen to me.
Ah --- ah
