Money Changers - Jesus Christ Superstar

Here you live Jerusalem,

Here you breathe Jerusalem,

While your temple still survives,

You at least are still alive.

I got things you won't believe,

Name your pleasure I will sell.

I can fix your wildest needs,

I got heaven and I got hell.

Roll on up, for my price is down.

Come on in for the best in town.

Take your pick of the finest wine.

Lay your bets on this bird of mine.

What you see is what you get.

No one's been disappointed yet.

Don't be scared give me a try,

There is nothing you can't buy.

Name your price, I got everything.

Hurry it's going fast.

Borrow cash on the finest terms.

Hurry now while stocks still last.

Here you breathe Jerusalem,

While your temple still survives,

You at least are still alive.

I got things you won't believe,

Name your pleasure I will sell.

JESUS

My temple should be a house of prayer,

But you have made it a den of thieves.

Get out! Get out!
