[male group] (interrupting tape)
et h0m- factus est

[baritone solo]
and was made man …

[male group]
and was made man

[baritone solo]
and you become a man
you, god, chose to become a man
to pay the earth a small social call
i tell you, sir, you never were
a man at all
why?
you had the choice when to live
when
to die
and then
become a god again
and then a plaster god like you …

[male group]
a god like you too …
[baritone solo]
has the gall to tell me what to do
to become a man
to show my respect on my knees …

[male group]
be like a man

[baritone solo]
go genuflect, but don’t expect guarantees
oh, just play it dumb
play it blind
but when i go
then
will i become a god again?

[male group]
possibly yes, probably no …

[baritone solo]
yes, probably no
give me a choice
i never had a choice
or i would have been a simple tree
a barnacle in a silent sea
anything but what i must be:
a man
a man
a man!
[male group]
possibly yes, probably no …

[baritone solo]
you knew what you had to do
you knew why you had to die

[male group]
man
man

[baritone solo]
you chose to die, and then revive again
you chose, you rose alive again
but i
i don’t know why i should live
if only to die
well, i’m not gonna buy it!

[male group]
possibly yes, probably no …

[baritone solo]
i’ll never say credo
how can anybody say credo?
i want to say credo …
(tape six.)

[choir]
crucifixus etiam pro n0bis sub pontio
pilato
passus, et sepultus est
et resurrexit tertia die, secundum
scripturas
et ascendit in caelum:
sedet ad dexteram patris
et iterum venturus est cum gloria judicare
vivos et mortuos
