The Arrest Lyrics

JESUS
Judas, must you betray me with a kiss?

PETER
What's the buzz?
Tell me what's happening. (Repeat)

PETER & APOSTLES
What's the buzz?
Tell me what's a-happening.
Hang on, Lord,
We're going to fight for you! (Repeat)

JESUS
Put away your sword
Don't you know that it's all over?
It was nice, but now it's gone.
Why are you obsessed with fighting?
Stick to fishing from now on.

CROWD
Tell me Christ how you feel tonight.
Do you plan to put up a fight?
Do you feel that you've had the breaks?
What would you say were your big mistakes?
Do you think that you may retire?
Did you think you would get much higher?
How do you view your coming trial?
Have your men proved at all worth while?
Come with us to see Caiaphas.
You'll just love the High Priest's house.
You'll just love seeing Caiaphas.
You'll just die in the High Priest's house.
Come on God this is not like you.
Let us know what you're going to do.
You know what you're supporters feel;
You'll escape in the final reel.
Tell me Christ how you feel tonight.
Do you plan to put up a fight?
Do you feel that you've had the breaks?
What would you say were your big mistakes?
Come with us to see Caiaphas.
You'll just love the High Priest's house.
You'll just love seeing Caiaphas.
You'll just die in the High Priest's house.

Now we have him!
Now we have got him!
(Repeat x 4)

CAIAPHAS
Jesus, you must realize the serious charges facing you.
You say you're the Son of God in all your handouts,
Well, is it true?

JESUS
That's what you say, you say that I am.

ANNAS
There you have it gentlemen.
What more evidence do we need?
Judas, thank you for the victim.
Stay a while and you'll see him bleed!

CROWD
Now we have him!
Now we've got him! (Repeat x 4)
Take him to Pilate! (Repeat x 4)
