There was a wicked messenger
From Eli he did come
With a mind that multiplied
The smallest matter
When questioned who had sent for him
He answered with his thumb
For his tongue it could not speak
But only flatter
He stayed behind the assembly hall
It was there that he made his bed
Often times he could be seen returning
Until one day he just appeared
With a note in his hand which read
The soles of my feet, I swear they're burning
The leaves began to fallin'
And the seas began to part
And the people that confronted him were many
The leaves began to fallin'
And the seas began to part
And the people that confronted him were many
And he was told these last few words
Which opened up his heart
If ye cannot bring good news, then don't bring any
If ye cannot bring good news, then don't bring any
And opened up his heart
