Godspell Lines and Cues

Morgan: The Pharisee, why he just stood right on up, and pra-a-a-a-ayed thus:

I thank thee, O God, that I am not like other men, greedy, dishonest, adulterous, or, for that matter, like that tax gatherer. I pray twice a week - get that? Twice a week!! And pay taxes on all that I get.

Jesus: And it was this man, I tell you…

Oh, you’ve got to be kidding!

Jesus: You have learned that they were told: Do not commit murder.

Do not!

Telly: Well! The other servants were deeply distressed when they saw what had happened. They ran and they told their master the whole story! Accordingly he sent for… The Man!!!

You scoundrel!

Telly: He said to him.

I remitted the whole of your debt when you appealed to me. Were you not bound to show your fellow servant the same pity I showed you?

Jesus: Hey Molly, can I borrow your bucket?

A man on his way to Jericho

was set upon by robbers

All: Oh oh oh!

They beat him

All: Oh!

Stripped him

All: Eek!

And knocked him on the head

and when they left

they left him for dead

now it so happened a priest came by

and the poor broken man he spied

he said…

Lindsay: Meh, say a Hail Mary…

And he passed on the other side.

All: And he passed on the other side.

So too a judge happened on the man

but he barely broke his stride

he said…

Telly: Sorry, important case, Lindsay Lohan… again!

And he passed on the other side.

All: he passed on the other side.

But then there happened upon the man

a poor and lowly …

All: Glug glug glug

glug glug glug

He bandaged his wounds and carried him

right to the nearest Comfort Inn

All: doo doo doo, doo doo doo

doo doo doo, doo doo doo

And there he paid the Man’s room and board

with two pieces of silver he couldn’t afford

and said to the innkeeper

Uzo: Let me see your birth certificate. I don’t know how you got this job, I’d take it from you if I didn’t…

(Everyone argues)

Hey!

Jesus: For they shall have mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart…

Jesus: That the one of you who is faultless shall throw the first stone.

Oh boy!

Jesus: I tell you this: One of you among us will betray me.

Can it be me, Lord?
