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 be 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 the new Messiah

 And they'll hurt you when they find they're 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's most famous son

 Should have stayed a great unknown

 Like his father carving wood

 He'd have made good

 Tables, chairs and oaken chests

 Would have suited Jesus best

 He'd have caused nobody harm

 No one alarm 

 

 Listen Jesus, do you care for your race?

 Don't you see we must keep in our place?

 We are occupied

 Have you forgotten how put down we are?

 I am frightened by the crowd

 For we are getting much too loud

 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 sad to see our chances weakening with ev'ry 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

 Ah --- ah ah ah --- ah

 God Jesus, it's all gone sour 

 

 Listen Jesus to the warning I give

 Please remember that I want us to live

 So come on, come on, listen to me.

 Ah --- ah

 Come on, listen, listen to me.

 Come on and listen to me.

 Ah --- ah
