letra de trial before pilate - jesus christ superstar cast
[pilate]
and so, the king is once again my guest
and why is this?
was herod unimpressed?
[caiaphas]
we turn to rome to sentence nazareth
we have no law to put a man to death
we need him crucified
it’s all you have to do
we need him crucified
it’s all you have to do
[pilate]
talk to me jesus christ
you have been brought here
manacled, beaten by your own people
do you have a first idea why you deserve it?
listen, king of the jews
where is your kingdom?
look at me
am i a jew?
[jesus]
i have no kingdom
in this world i’m through
[mob]
talk to me, jesus christ
[jesus]
there may be a kingdom for me somewhere
if you only knew
[pilate]
then you are a king?
[jesus]
it’s you that say i am
i look for truth, and find that i get d-mned
[pilate]
but what is truth? is truth unchanging law?
we both have truths
are mine the same as yours?
[mob]
crucify him! crucify him!
[pilate]
what do you mean? you’d crucify your king?
[mob]
we have no king but caesar!
[pilate]
he’s done no wrong
no, not the slightest thing!
[mob]
we have no king but caesar! crucify him!
[pilate]
what is this new respect for caesar?
till now this has been noticeably lacking
who is this jesus? why is he different?
you choose messiahs by the sack full
[mob]
we need him crucified
it’s all you have to do
we need him crucified
it’s all you have to do
[pilate]
talk to me jesus christ
look at your jesus christ
i’ll agree he’s mad
ought to be locked up
but there is not a reason to destroy him
he’s a sad little man
not a king or god
not a thief
i need a crime
[mob]
crucify him, crucify him
[pilate]
behold a man, behold your shattered king
[mob]
we have no king but caesar
[pilate]
you hypocrites, you hate us more than him
[mob]
we have no king but caesar, crucify him
[pilate]
i see no reason, i find no evil
this man is harmless so why does he upset you?
he’s just misguided, thinks he’s important
but to keep you vultures happy, i shall flog him
[mob]
crucify him! crucify him!
crucify him! crucify him! crucify him! crucify him!
crucify him! crucify him!
crucify him! crucify him! crucify him! crucify him!
crucify him! crucify him!
crucify him! crucify him! crucify him! crucify him!
[thirty-nine lashes, pilate counts]
[pilate]
where are you from jesus? what do you want jesus? tell me
you’ve got to be careful, you could be dead soon
could well be
why do you not speak when i hold your life in my hands?
how can you stay quiet? i don’t believe you understand
[jesus]
you have nothing in your hands
any power you have comes to you from far beyond
everything is fixed, and you can’t change it
[pilate]
you’re a fool, jesus christ, how can i help you?
[mob]
pilate, crucify him, crucify him
remember caesar, you have a duty
to keep the peace, so crucify him
remember caesar, you’ll be demoted, you’ll be deported
crucify him
remember caesar, you have a duty
to keep the peace, so crucify him
remember caesar, you’ll be demoted, you’ll be deported
crucify him
remember caesar, you have a duty
to keep the peace, so crucify him
remember caesar, you’ll be demoted, you’ll be deported
crucify him
[pilate]
don’t let me stop your great self-destruction
die if you want to, you misguided martyr
i wash my hands of your demolition
die if you want to, you innocent puppet
