paroles de chanson The Last Supper - Andre Previn , Carl Anderson , Ted Neeley

APOSTLES Look at all my trials and tribulations
Sinking in a gentle pool of wine
Dont′t disturb me now I can see the
Answers
Till this evening is this morning life is fine
Always hoped I'd be an apostle

Knew that I would make it if I tried

Then when we retire we can write the gospels
So they′ll still talk about us when we've died

JESUS The end...
Is just a little harder when brought about by friends
For all you care this wine could be my blood
For all you care this bread could be my body
The end!
This is my blood you drink
This is my body you eat
If you would remember me when you eat and drink...
I must be mad thinking I'll be remembered - yes
I must be out of my head!
Look at your blank faces! My name will mean nothing
Ten minutes after I′m dead!
One of you denies me
One of you betrays me -

APOSTLES How can he say that?
Betray you? - Who? - Not me!.

JESUS Peter will deny me

PETER No, not me!

JESUS In just a few hours
Three times will deny me - and that′s not all I see
One of you here dining, one of my twelve chosen
Will leave to betray me -

JUDAS Cut out the dramatics! You know very well who -

JESUS Why dont't you go do it?

JUDAS You want me to do it!

JESUS Hurry they are waiting

JUDAS If you knew why I do it...

JESUS I don′t care why you do it!

JUDAS To think I admired you
Well now I despise you

JESUS You liar - you Judas

JUDAS You wanted me to do it!
What if I just stayed here
And ruined your ambition?
Christ you deserve it!

JESUS Hurry you fool, hurry and go,
Save me your speeches, I don't want to know - Go! Go!

APOSTLES Look at all my trials and tribulations
Sinking in a gentle pool of wine
What′s that in the bread it's gone to my head
Till this morning is this evening life is fine
Always hoped that I′d be an apostle

Knew that I would make if I tried
Then when we retire we can write the gospels
So they'll all talk about us when we've died

JUDAS You sad pathetic man - see where you′ve brought us to
Our ideals die around us and all because of you
But now the saddest cut of all -
Someone had to turn you in
Like a common criminal, like a wounded animal
A jaded mandarin
A jaded mandarin
Like a jaded faded faded jaded jaded mandarin

JESUS Get out! They′re waiting! Oh they're
Waiting for you!

JUDAS Everytime I look at you I don′t understand
Why you let the things you did get so out of hand
You have managed better if you'd had it planned -

APOSTLES Always hoped that I′d be an apostle
Knew that I would make it if I tried
Then when we retire we can write the gospels
So they'll still talk about us when we′ve died

JESUS Will no-one stay awake with me?
Peter? John? James?
Will none of you wait with me?
Peter? John? James?
