Trial before Pilate (Including the 39 lashes)歌詞

　　(Pilate)
　　And so the king
　　Is once again my guest
　　And why is this?
　　Was Herod unimpressed?
　　
　　(Caiaphas)
　　We turned to Rome
　　To sentence Nazareth
　　We have no law
　　To put a man to death
　　We need him crucified
　　It's all you have to do
　　We need him crucified
　　It's all you have to do
　　
　　(Pilate)
　　Talk to me, Jesus Christ
　　You have been brought here
　　Manacled, beaten by your own people
　　Do you have the first idea
　　Why you deserve it?
　　Listen, king of the Jews,
　　Where is your kingdom?
　　Look at me
　　Am I a Jew?
　　
　　(Jesus)
　　I have got no kingdom
　　In this world
　　I'm through, through, through
　　There may be a kingdom for me
　　Somewhere if I only knew
　　
　　(Pilate)
　　You're a king
　　
　　(Jesus)
　　Yes you can see I am
　　I look for truth
　　And find that I get damned
　　
　　(Pilate)
　　But what is truth?
Not easy to define
　　We both have truths
　　Are yours the same as mine?
　　
　　(Crowd)
　　Crucify him, crucify him!
　　
　　(Pilate)
　　What do you mean
　　You'd crucify your king?
　　
　　(Crowd)
　　We have no king but Caesar
　　
　　(Pilate)
　　He's done no wrong
　　No, not the slightest thing
　　
　　(Crowd)
　　We have no king but Caesar
　　Crucify him!
　　
　　(Pilate)
Oh this is new
Respect for Caesar
Till now, this has been noticeably lacking
Who is this Jesus? Why is he different?
You Jews produce Messiahs by the sackful
　　(Crowd)
　　We need him crucified
　　It's all you have to do
　　We need him crucified
　　It's all you have to do
　　(Pilate)
　　Talk to me, Jesus Christ
Look at you, Jesus Christ
I'll agree he's mad
Ought to be locked up
But that is not the reason to destroy him
He's a sad little man, not a king or God
Not a thief, I need a crime
　　(Crowd)
　　Kill him, he says he's God
He's a blasphemer
He'll conquer you and us
And even Caesar
Kill him!
Crucify him! Crucify him!
　　(Pilate)
　　Behold the man, behold your shattered king
　　(Crowd)
　　We have no king but Caesar
　　(Pilate)
You hypocrites, you hate us more than him
　　(Crowd)
　　We have no king but Caesar
Crucify him!
　　(Pilate)
　　I see no reason
　　I find no evil
　　This man is harmless
　　So why does he upset you?
　　He's just misguided
　　Thinks he's important
　　But to keep you vultures happy
　　I shall flog him
　　
　　(Crowd)
Crucify him! Crucify him!
　　Crucify! Crucify!
　　Crucify! Crucify!
　　Crucify! Crucify!
　　
　　(Pilate counts off the 39 Lashes)
　　One! Two! Three! Four! Five! Six! Seven! Eight! Nine! Ten! Eleven!
　　Twelve! Thirteen! Fourteen! Fifteen! Sixteen! Seventeen! Eighteen!
　　Nineteen! Twenty! Twenty one! Twenty two! Twenty three! Twenty four!
　　Twenty five! Twenty six! Twenty seven! Twenty eight! Twenty nine!
　　Thirty! Thirty one! Thirty two! Thirty three! Thirty four! Thirty
　　five! Thirty six! Thirty seven! Thirty eight! Thirty nine!
　　
　　(Pilate)
　　Where are you from Jesus?
　　What do you want Jesus?
　　Tell me!
　　You've got to be careful
　　You could be dead soon
　　Could well be
　　Why do you not speak
　　When I have your life in my hands?
　　How can you stay quiet?
　　I don't believe you understand!
　　
　　(Jesus)
　　You have nothing in your hands
　　Any power you have
　　Comes to you from far beyond
　　Everything is fixed
　　And you can't change it
　　
　　(Pilate)
　　You're a fool, Jesus Christ
　　How can I help you?
　　
　　(Crowd)
　　Crucify him! Crucify him!
　　Remember Caesar
　　You have a duty
　　To keep the peace
　　So crucify him!
　　Remember Caesar
　　You'll be demoted
　　You'll be deported
　　So crucify him!
　　
　　(Pilate)
　　Don't let me stop
　　Your great self-desctruction
　　Die if you want to
　　You misguided martyr!
　　I wash my hands
　　Of your demolition
　　Die if you want to
　　You innocent puppet!
