Wicked Messenger

Lyrics

There was a wicked messenger from Eli, he did come
 With a mind that multiplied the smallest matter
 When asked, "Who had sent for him?" He answered with his thumb
 'Cause his tongue, it could not speak but only flatter
 But he stayed behind in the assembly hall, it was there he made his prayer
 And oftentimes, he could be seen returning
 Until one day, he just appeared with a note in his hand that read
 "The soles of my feet, I swear, they're burning"
 Oh, that man is slaying king
 He will slither his own heart
 He will speak same
 And them cheese in his chest
 Shiba in his chest
 Shiba
 Shiba, shiba
 ♪
 The leaves began to fallin', and the seas began to part
 And the people that confronted him were many
 And he was told these few words which opened up his heart
 "If you cannot bring good news, then, don't bring any"
 If you cannot bring good news, then, don't bring any
 If you cannot bring good news, then, don't bring any
