Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every time I look at you, I don't understand
Why you let the things you did get so out of hand
You'd have managed better if you'd had it planned
Why'd you choose such a backward time and such a strange land?
If you'd come today, you would have reached a whole nation
Israel in 4 BC had no mass communication
[Refrain]
Don't you get me wrong
Don't get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong now
Don't get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Don't get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong now
Don't get me wrong
[Refrain]
I wanna know
I'd only like to know
I wanna know now
I only wanna know
I wanna know
I only wanted to know
I wanna know now
Hey now
[Chorus]
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
Jesus Christ Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
[Verse 2]
Tell me what you think about your friends at the top
Who'd you think, besides yourself, was the pick of the crop? Hey
Buddha, was he where it's at? Is he where you are?
Could Muhammad move that mountain, or was that PR?
Did you mean to die like that? Was that a mistake, or
Did you know your messy death would be a record-breaker?
[Refrain]
Don't get me wrong
Don't get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong now
Don't get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong
Don't get me wrong
Don't you get me wrong now
Don't get me wrong
[Refrain]
I wanna know
I'd only like to know
I wanna know now
I only got to know
I wanna know
I only wanted to know
I wanna know now
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
Jesus Christ Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
[Chorus]
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
Jesus Christ Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
[Chorus]
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
Jesus Christ Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
[Outro]
Are you what they say you are?
Jesus
