Don't Harm The Messenger |
One day you might hear someone knocking |
Loudly at your door |
And you know it must be bad news |
Absolutely sure |
You must realize before you |
Strike the very first blow |
He’s the one who only tells you |
What you already know |
Lay not a finger on him |
Beat not oh bruise not |
His skinny skin skin |
No don’t ever harm the messenger |
Understand he came a long way |
Only on a lonely road |
Multiplying were his trials |
Heavy was his load |
Understand his heart was breaking |
Never once did he sleep |
And no hollow log kept him warm |
No council did he keep |
Give him food, give him a bed |
Touch not one single hair on his head |
No don’t ever harm the messenger |
Don’t ever harm the messenger |
It could be you |
