JUDAS Now if I help you it matters that you see These sordid kind of things are coming hard to me It's taken me some time to work out what to do I weighed the whole thing up before I came to you I have no thought at all about my own reward I really didn't come here of my own accord Just don't say I'm Damned for all time I came because I had to I'm the one who saw Jesus can't control it like he did before And furthermore I know that Jesus thinks so too Jesus wouldn't mind that I was here with you I have no thought at all about my own reward I really didn't come here of my own accord Just don't say I'm Damned for all time Annas you're a friend a wordly man and wise Caiaphas my friend I know you sympathise Why are we the prophets? Why are we the ones? Who see the sad solution - know what must be done I have no thought at all about my own reward I really didn't come here of my own accord Just don't say I'm Damned for all time.
ANNAS Cut the protesting forget the excuses We want information get up off the floor
CAIAPHAS We have the papers we need to arrest him You know his movements - we know the law
ANNAS Your help in this matter won't go unrewarted
CAIAPHAS We'll pay you in silver-cash on the nail We just need to know where the soldiers can find him
ANNAS With no croud around him
CAIAPHAS Then we can't fail
JUDAS I don't need your blood money!
CAIAPHAS Oh that doesn't matter our expenses are good
JUDAS I don't want your blood money!
ANNAS But you might as well take it - we think that you should
CAIAPHAS Think of the things you can do with that money Choose any charity give to the poor We've noted your motives - we've noted your feelings This isn't blood money - it's a fee nothing fee nothing fee nothing more.
JUDAS On Thursday night you'll find him where you want him Far from the crowds in the Garden of Gethsemane
