Jesus Christ Superstar
Judas (in Jesus Christ Superstar)
Stands as we stand
Framing this story
In time and place..
And asking questions
With no answers
Then or now..
What's the buzz..?
To know who he was
We need only
Know who we are..
Each must sacrifice
Our outward beliefs..
Turn inward to recognize
a Superstar...!

VOICE OF JUDAS
Every time I look at you I don't understand
Why you let the things you did get so out of hand.
You'd have managed better if you'd had it planned.
Why'd you choose such a backward time in such a strange land?
If you'd come today you could have reached a whole nation.
Israel in 4 BC had no mass communication.
Don't you get me wrong.
I only want to know.
CHOIR
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ,
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ Superstar,
Do you think you're what they say you are?
