[Bethany, Friday Night]
[Apostles:]
What’s the buzz?
Tell me, what’s happening?
[Jesus:]
Why should you want to know?
Don’t you mind about the future,
Don’t you try to think ahead,
Save tomorrow for tomorrow,
Think about today instead
[Apostles:]
What’s the buzz?
Tell me, what’s happening?
[Jesus:]
I could give you facts and figures —
I could give you plans and forecasts
Even tell you where I’m goin —
[Apostles:]
When do we ride into Jerusalem?…
[Jesus:]
Why should you want to know?
Why are you obsessed with fighting
Times and fates you can’t defy?
If you knew the path we’re riding
You’d understand it less than I
[Apostles:]
What’s the buzz?
Tell me, what’s happening?
[Mary Magdalene:]
Let me try to cool down your face a bit
[Jesus:]
Mary — mm — that is good
While you, prattle through your supper —
Where and when and who and how
She alone has tried to give me
What I need right here and now
[Apostles:]
What’s the buzz?
Tell me, what’s happening?
