Gordie Sampson - Don't Shoot The Messenger lyrics

rate me

Everybody likes you<br />

Because you got that special way<br />

You shimmer and you shine<br />

And you drop the ball sometimes<br />

But that's a small price to pay<br />

<br />

I don't mean to speak in riddles<br />

I'm just trying to make you see<br />

And so true are all my words<br />

As the Gospel of the Church<br />

And they will sting you like a bee<br />

<br />

Shame on you<br />

For bringing this to my attention<br />

And I know this hurts you so<br />

But I just had to let you know<br />

Don't shoot the messenger<br />

<br />

Know that I will give up everything<br />

To make a brand new start<br />

Baby, sticks and stones<br />

Will never break my bones<br />

This is going to break my heart<br />

<br />

She said, shame on you<br />

For bringing this to my attention<br />

And I know this hurts you so<br />

But I just had to let you know<br />

Don't shoot the messenger<br />

<br />

She said, shame on you<br />

For bringing this to my attention<br />

And I know it hurts you so<br />

But I just had to let you know<br />

Don't shoot the messenger<br />

<br />

I can walk on water<br />

Or turn it into wine<br />

But I can't tell you this<br />

That every single little kiss<br />

A taste of trouble you might find<br />

<br />

She said, shame on you<br />

For bringing this to my attention<br />

And I know it hurts you so<br />

But I just had to let you know<br />

Don't shoot the messenger<br />

<br />

She said, shame on you<br />

For bringing this to my attention<br />

And I know it hurts you so<br />

But I just had to let you know<br />

Don't shoot the messenger<br />

<br />

She said, shame on you<br />

For bringing this to my attention<br />

And I know it hurts you so
