Lyrics

My God! I saw Him, He looked three-quarters dead
And it was so bad I had to turn my head
You beat Him so hard that He was bent and lame
And I know who everybody's gonna blame
I don't believe He knows I acted for our good
I'd save him all this suffering if I could
Don't believe our good
And I'd save him if I could
Cut the confessions, forget the excuses
I don't understand why you're filled with remorse
All that you've said has come true with a vengeance
The mob turned against Him, you backed the right horse
What you have done will be the saving of Israel
You'll be remembered forever for this
Not only that, you've been paid for your efforts
Pretty good wages for one little kiss
Christ, I know You can't hear me
But I only did what You wanted me to
Christ, I'd sell out the nation
For I have been saddled with the murder of You
I have been spattered with innocent blood
I shall be dragged through the slime and the mud
I have been spattered with innocent blood
I shall be dragged through the slime, and the slime, and the slime and the mud
I, I don't know how to love him
I don't know why he moves me
He's a man
He's just a man
He's not a king
He is just the same
As anyone I know
He scares me so
When he's cold and dead, will he let me be?
Does he love?
Does he love me too?
Does he care for me?
My mind is in darkness now
My God, I am sick
I, I have been used
And you knew, you knew all the time
My God, I'll never ever know why You chose me for Your crime
Your bloody, foul, bloody crime
You have murdered me
You have murdered me
Murdered me, murdered me, murdered me, murdered me
Murdered me, murdered me, murdered me, murdered me
Murdered me, murdered me, murdered me, murdered me
Murdered me, murdered me, murdered me, murdered me
Murdered me, murdered me, murdered me, murdered me
Murdered me, murdered me, murdered me, murdered me
Murdered me, murdered me, murdered me, murdered me
(Poor old Judas)
(So long, Judas)
(Poor old Judas)
(So long, Judas)
