Mary Magdalene (Sarah Brightman) Try not to get worried Try not to turn on to Problems that upset you (oh) Don't you know Everything's alright Yes everything's fine And we want you to sleep well tonight Let the world turn without you tonight If we try We'll get by So forget all about us tonight
Apostles' Women Everything's all right Yes everything's all right yes
Mary Magdalene Sleep and I shall soothe you Calm you and anoint you Myrrh for your hot forehead (oh) Then you'll feel Everything's all right Yes everything's fine And it's cool and the ointment's sweet For the fire in your head and feet Close your eyes Close your eyes And relax Think of nothing tonight
Apostles' Women Everything's all right Yes everything's all right yes
Judas (Gary Martin) Woman your fine ointment Brand new and expensive Could have been saved for the poor Why has it been wasted? We could have raised maybe Three hundred silver pieces or more People who are hungry People who are starving Thay matter more Than your feet and hair
Mary Magdalene Try not to get worried Try not to turn on to Problems that upset you (oh) Don't you know Everything's all right Yes everything's fine And we want you to sleep well tonight Let the world turn without you tonight If we try We'll get by So forget all about us tonight
Apostles' Women Everything's all right Yes everything's all right yes
Jesus (Bogdan Kominowksi) Surely you're not saying We have the resources To save the poor from their lot? There will be poor always Pathetically struggling Look at the good things you've got! Think While you still have me Move While you still see me You'll be lost You'll be so, so sorry When I'm gone
Mary Magdalene Sleep and I shall soothe you Calm you and anoint you Myrrh for your hot forehead (oh) then you'll feel Everything's alright Yes everything's fine And it's cool and the ointment's sweet For the fire in your head and feet Close your eyes Close your eyes And relax Think of nothing tonight
Apostles' Women & Mary Magdalene Close your eyes Alose your eyes And relax Think of nothing tonight
Men Everything's all right Yes everything's all right yes
