John Wesley Harding - Kill the Messenger lyrics
The messenger came with bad news from the front Said "the soldiers are starving and their swords are all blunt They need a show of support or some futile sign Thats what they told me to tell you, not even the words are mine..." The messenger came with bad news from the war Said "the fine young men forgot who they were fighting for They dont wanna be stars on your tv screen Thats the general feeling, please dont blame it on me" And the people said "one and one is two Theres nothing left for us to do But since we can blame it all on you We will kill the messenger" The messenger came with bad news from the town Said "the phone-lines are on strike and the doormen are all down Theyve turned your den of thieves into a temple They need someone of stature to set them an example" And the people said "two and two is four Dont tell us anymore We all know the score We must kill the messenger" Someone brought the news to the messengers folks He said "your sons been killed two times" They said "is that a joke? " He said "no He was he victim of ignorant minds I hate to bring such bad news, please dont think me unkind" And the family said "one and one is two Theres nothing left for us to do But since youre here and we can blame it on you We will kill the messenger So if you want to send a message... |
