Judas [English translation]

Judas, Judas, Judas, Judas iscariot

Judas, Judas, Judas, Judas iscariot

your oath was meaningless

you caused a royal mess

when you sold out your friend

and when the rooster crows

your true intention shows

you won't do that again

Judas (Judas), Judas (Judas), Judas iscariot

Judas (Judas), Judas (Judas), Judas iscariot

You took the silver purse

on you will rest a curse

goon of the jewish race

sold out your loyal friend

straight into roman hand

shame written on your face

Judas was a man from Galilea

where he ran a tiny little shop

he met this travelling Jew

said "i will follow you"

turned out the greatest gift he ever got

Pharisees and leaders in the basement

bribed him with their roman coin supply

Jesus he had no doubt, one man had sold him out

and he asked him "Judas, why?"

Judas (Judas), Judas (Judas), Judas iscariot

Judas (Judas), Judas (Judas), Judas iscariot

your oath was meaningless

you caused a royal mess

when you sold out your friend

and when the rooster crows

your true intention shows

you won't do that again

On the final supper on a wednesday

Jesus shared the bread and shared the wine

Jesus saw through the plot

said "Judas, hurry up"

for he knew it was his time

You were waiting for another kingdom

Like the other jews without a doubt

Jesus he looked so weak

just a prophetic freak

that couldn't drive the romans out

Judas (Judas), Judas (Judas), Judas iscariot

Judas (Judas), Judas (Judas), Judas iscariot

your oath was meaningless

you caused a royal mess

when you sold out your friend

and when the rooster crows

your true intention shows

you won't do that again

Judas (Judas), Judas (Judas), Judas iscariot

Judas (Judas), Judas (Judas), Judas iscariot

You took the silver purse

on you will rest a curse

goon of the jewish race

your knees were getting weak

You kissed him on the cheek

when they led him away

Judas, Judas, Judas, you crook !
