Jesus Christ Superstar (1996 London Revival) King
Herod's Song Lyrics:
[Herod:] Jesus, I am overjoyed to meet you face to face.
You've been getting quite a name all around the place.
Healing cripples. Cute trick! Raising from the dead. Ooooo!
Oh, and now I understand you're God. Well, at least, that's what you've said.

So, you are the Christ, you're the great Jesus Christ.
Prove to me that you're divine, change my water into wine.
That's all you need do, and I'll know it's all true.
Come on, King of the Jews.

Jesus, you just won't believe the hit you've made 'round here.
You're all we talk about, the wonder of the year.
Oh, what a pity if it's all a lie.
Still, I'm sure that you can rock the cynics if you tried.

So, you are the Christ, you're the great Jesus Christ.
Prove to me that you're no fool, walk across my swimming pool.
If you do that for me, then I'll let you go free.

Come on, King of the Jews.

Hit it boys!

[Instrumental break featuring honky-tonk piano solo.]

I only ask the things I'd ask of any superstar.
What is it that you have got that puts you where you are?
Oh, I am waiting, yes, I'm a captive fan.
I'm dyin' to be shown that you are not just any man.

So, if you are the Christ, yes, the great Jesus Christ,
Feed my household with this bread. You could do it on your head.
Or has something gone wrong? Why do you take so long?
Come on, you King of the Jews.

Hey! Aren't you scared of me Christ? Mr. Wonderful Christ?
You're a joke. You're not the Lord. You are nothing but a fraud.
Take him away. He's got nothing to say!
Get out you King of the...
Get out King of the...
Get out you King of the Jews!

Get outta here! You're gonna hafta do better'n that boy!
