20. King Herod's Song

HEROD
Jesus I am overjoyed to meet you face to face
You've been getting quite a name all around the place
Healing cripples raising from the dead!
And now I understand you're God 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
C'mon King of the Jews
Jesus you just won't believe the hit you've
made round here
You are 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 try
So you are the Christ you're the great Jesus Christ
Prove me that you're no fool - walk across my
swimming pool
If you do that for me then I'll let you go free
C'mon King of the Jews
I only ask things I'd ask any Superstar
What is it that you have got that puts you where
you are?
I am waiting yes I'm captive fan
I am dying 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 can do it on your head
Or has something gone wrong? Why do you take so long?
C'mon 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 Jews! Get out of my life!
