Pilate And Christ Lyrics

Artist: Jesus Christ Superstar
Album: Jesus Christ Superstar Soundtrack

Pilate
Who is this broken man?
Cluttering up my hallway?
Who is this un-for-tu-nate?

Soldier
Someone Christ, King of the Jews

Pilate
Oh so this is Jesus Christ
I am really quite surprised
You look so small
Not a king at all
We all know that you are news
But are you king?
King of the Jews?

Jesus
That's what you say

Pilate
What do you mean by that?
That is not an answer
You're deep in trouble friend
Someone Christ, King of the Jews
How can someone in your state
Be so cool about your fate?
An amazing thing
This silent king
Since you come from Galilee
So you need not come to me
You're Herod's race
You're Herod's case

Chorus
Hosanna, hey sanna, sanna sanna ho
Sanna hey, sanna ho, sanna
Hey JC, JC, please explain to me
You had everything, where is it now?

Comments/Interpretations
by MadScientist on 6/24/2008 4:29pm As a Catholic, I love this musical so much. It provides a more down-to-earth view of what Jesus spoke of and what he went through. I wouldn't doubt that God has guided the verbal and musical abilities of Andrew Llyod Weber.
by Other on 7/9/2008 7:28am MadScientist, this musical, while good, is also slightly wrong. For example, it shows Judas as betraying Jesus. Unfortunately, the Bible does not actually make it clear whether or not Judas actually betrayed Jesus.
by rk:] on 7/12/2008 8:11pm "Other", just in case ya didn't know, MadScientist person said NOTHING about Judas betraying Jesus :) AND, have you ever even read the Bible? I mean seriously, I don't think the whole world would just make that up, it says in the Bible that Judas betrayed Jesus, it's not just some story people made up. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT.
by TATA on 7/16/2008 2:38pm hhhmmm... i agree with madscientist it shows the more human side of jesus and also provides us with more of an explanation as to why judas turned him in. he was betraying him, but maybe for reasons that made sense to him. it shows judas as being a weak, troubled and confused man, not just some betrayer backstabber.
