Jesus Christ Superstar lyrics : "Simon Zelotes / Poor Jerusalem"

[Crowd:]
Christ, you know I love you. Did you see I waved?
I believe in you and God, so, tell me that I'm saved.

Christ, you know I love you. Did you see I waved?
I believe in you and God, so, tell me that I'm saved.
Jesus, I am with you. Touch me, touch me, Jesus.

Jesus, I am on your side. Kiss me, kiss me, Jesus.

[Simon Zealotes:]

Christ, what more do you need to convince you,
That you've made it, and you're easily as strong
As the filth from Rome who rape our country,

And who've terrorized our people for so long.

[Crowd:]

Christ, you know I love you. Did you see I waved?
I believe in you and God, so, tell me that I'm saved.
Christ, you know I love you. Did you see I waved?

I believe in you and God, so, tell me that I'm saved.
Jesus, I am with you. Touch me, touch me, Jesus.
Jesus, I am on your side. Kiss me, kiss me, Jesus.


[Simon Zealotes:]
There must be over fifty thousand screaming love and more for you.

And everyone of fifty thousand would do whatever you asked him to.
Well, keep them yelling their devotion. Make sure they're all hating Rome.
You will rise to a greater power. We will win ourselves a home.

You'll get the power and glory forever and ever and ever.
You'll get the power and glory forever and ever and ever.
You'll get the power and glory forever and ever and ever.

You'll get the power and the glory forever and ever.
Forever and ever. You'll get the power and the glory forever and ever.
((Forever, amen!))


[Jesus:]
Neither you, Simon, nor the fifty thousand, nor the Romans, nor the Jews,

Nor Judas, nor the twelve, nor the priests, nor the scribes,
Nor doomed Jerusalem itself, understand what power is,
Understand what glory is, understand at all, understand at all.


If you knew all that I knew, my poor Jerusalem,
You'd see the truth, but you'd live a lie. But you'd live a lie.

While you live, your troubles are many, poor Jerusalem.
To conquer death, you only have to die. You only have to die.
