(Priest)

Good Caiaphas

The council waits for you

The Pharisees and priests

Are here for you



(Caiaphas)

Ah gentlemen, you know why we are here

With not much time, and quite a problem here



(Crowd outside)

Hosanna! Superstar!



(Annas)

Listen to that howling mob

Of blockheads in the street

A trick or two with lepers

And the whole town's on its feet



(All)

He is dangerous! He is dangerous!



(Crowd)

Jesus Christ, Superstar

Tell us that you are who they say you are



(Priests)

He is dangerous, dangerous

That man is in town right now

To whip up some support

A rabble rousing mission

That I think we must abort

He is dangerous



(Crowd)

Jesus Christ, Superstar



(Priests)

He is dangerous

Look Caiaphas

They are right outside our yard

Quick Caiaphas

Go call the Roman guard



(Caiaphas)

No wait, we need a more permanent solution to our problem.



(Annas)

What shall we do about Jesus of Nazareth?

Miracle worker, pilgrim or fool



(Priest)

No riots, no Romans, no fighting, no slogans



(Caiaphas)

One thing to say for him, Jesus is cool



(Annas)

We dare not leave him to his own devices

His half-witted fans will get out of control



(Priest)

But how can we stop him, his glamour increases

With every minute, he's top of the pole



(Caiaphas)

I see bad things arising

The crowd crown him King

Which the Romans would ban

I see blood and destruction

Our elimination because of one man

Blood and destruction

Because of one man



(Voices)

What can we do about this Jesusmania?

How c
