1996 London Studio Cast Heaven on Their Minds Lyrics

[Judas:]
My mind is clearer now
At last, all too well I can see
Where we all soon will be
If you strip away
The myth from the man
You will see
Where we all soon will be

Jesus!

You've started to believe the things they say of you
You really do believe this talk of god is true
And all the good you've done
Will soon get swept away
You've begun to matter more than the things you say

Listen Jesus, I don't like what I see
All I ask is that you listen to me
And remember, I've been your right hand man all along
You have set them all on fire
They think they've found a new messiah
And they'll hurt you when they find their wrong

I remember when this whole thing began
No talk of god then, we called you a man
And believe me, my admiration for you hasn't died
But every word you say today
Gets twisted 'round some other way
And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied

Nazareth, your famous son
Should have stayed a great unknown
Like his father carving wood
He'd have made good
Table, chair and oaken chest
Would have suited Jesus best
He'd have caused nobody harm
No one alarm

Listen Jesus; do you care for you race?
Don't you see we must keep in our place?
We are occupied
Have you forgotten how put down we are
And our conquers object
To another noisy sect
And they'll crush us if we go too far
If we go too far

Listen Jesus; to the warning I give
Please remember that I want us to live
But it's hard to see our chances weakening with every hour
All your followers are blind
Too much heaven on their minds
It was beautiful but now it's sour
Yes it's all gone sour

Listen Jesus; to the warning I give
Please remember that I want us to live
So listen Jesus; to warning I give
I just want us to live
It's all gone sour
