Jesus Christ Superstar soundtrack – The Arrest lyrics

Album: Jesus Christ Superstar

ANNASCut the protesting, forget the excuses.
We want information. Get up of the floor.
CAIAPHASWe have the papers we need to arrest him.
You know his movements. We know the law.
ANNASYour help in this matter won't go unrewarded.
CAIAPHASWe'll pay you in silver, cash on the nail.
We just need to know where the soldiers can find him.
ANNASWith no crowd around him.
CAIAPHASThen we can't fail.JUDASI don't need your blood money!
CAIAPHASOh, that doesn't matter, our expenses are good.
JUDASI don't want your blood money!
ANNASBut you might as well take it. We think that you should.
CAIAPHASThink of the things you can do with that money,
Choose any charity - give to the poor.
We've noted your motives. We've noted your feelings.
This isn't blood money - it's a fee nothing,
Fee nothing, fee nothing more.
Betrayal
JUDASOn Thursday night you'll find him where you want him.
Far from the crowds, in the Garden of Gethsemane.
CHOIRWell done Judas.
Good old Judas.
