My mind is clear now
At last
all too well
I can see
Where we all
soon will be
If you strip away
The myth
from the man
you will see
Where we all
soon will be
Jesus!
You've started to believe
the things they
say of you
You really do believe
this talk of God is true
And all the good
you've done
will soon get
swept away
You've begun
to matter more
than the things
you say
Listen Jesus
I don't like
what I see
All I ask is that
you listen to me
And remember
I've been your
right hand man
all along
You have set them
all on fire
They think they've
found the new
Messiah
And they'll hurt you
when they find
they're wrong
I remember when
this whole thing began
No talk of God then
we called you a man
And believe me
my admiration
for you hasn't died
But every word
you say today
gets twisted round
some other way
And they'll hurt you
if they think you've lied
And Nazareth
your famous son
should have stayed
a great unknown
Like his father
carving wood
he'd have made good
Tables, chairs and
oaken chests would
have suited Jesus best
He'd have caused
nobody harm
No-one alarm
listen Jesus
do you care
for your race?
Don't you see
we must keep
in our place?
We are occupied
have you forgotten
how put down we are?
I am frightened
by the crowd
For we are getting
much too loud
And they'll crush us
if we go too far
if they go too fa.......r
Listen Jesus
to the warning I give
Please remember
that I want us to live
But it's sad to see
our chances weakening
with every hour
all your followers
are blind
Too much heaven
on their minds
It was beautiful
but now it's sour
yes it's all
gone so........ur
Come on Jesus
won't you listen to me
Jesus
Jesus
