APOSTLES
Look at all my trials and tribulations
Sinking in a gentle pool of wine
Don't disturb me now, I can see the answers
'Till this evening is this morning, life is fine
Always hoped that I'd be an apostle
Knew that I would make it if I tried
Then when we retire, we can write the Gospels,
So they'll still talk about us when we've died

JESUS
The end
Is just a little harder when brought about by friends
For all you care, this wine could be my blood
For all you care, this bread could be my body
The end!
This is my blood you drink
This is my body you eat
If you would remember me when you eat and drink
I must be mad thinking I'll be remembered Yes,
I must be out of my head
Look at your blank faces My name will mean nothing
Ten minutes after I'm dead
One of you denies me
One of you betrays me

APOSTLES
No! Not I! Who would?! Impossible!

JESUS
Peter will deny my in Just a few hours
Three times will deny me,
And that's not all I see
One of you here dining,
One of my twelve chosen
Will leave to betray me

JUDAS
Cut out the dramatics! You know very well who

JESUS
Why don't you go do it?

JUDAS
You want me to do it!

JESUS
Hurry, they are waiting

JUDAS
If you knew why I do it

JESUS
I don't care why you do it!

JUDAS
To think I admired you
For now I despise you

JESUS
You liar You Judas

JUDAS
You want me to do it!
What if I just stayed here
And runied your ambition
Christ you deserve it

JESUS
Hurry, you fool Hurry and go
Save me your speeches, I don't want to know Go!

APOSTLES
Look at all my trials and tribulations
Sinking in a gentle pool of wine
What's that in the bread? It's gone to my head,
'Till this morning is this evening, life is fine
Always hoped that I'd be an apostle
Knew that I would make it if I tried
Then when we retire, we can write the Gospels,
So they'll all talk about us when we've died

JUDAS
You sad, pathetic man, see where you've brought us to,
Our ideals die around us and it's all because of you
And now the sadest cut of all:
Someone has to turn you in
Like a common criminal, like a wounded animal
A jaded mandarin,
A jaded mandarin,
As a jaded, jaded, faded, jaded, jaded mandarin

JESUS
Get out they're waiting!
Get out, they are waiting!
Oh, they're waiting for you!

JUDAS
Everytime I look at you I don't understand
Why you let the things you did get so out of hand
You'd have managed better if you had it planned

APOSTLES
Always hoped that I'd be an apostle
Knew that I would make it if I tried
Then when we retire, we can write the Gospels,
So they'll all talk about us when we've died
