Wicked Messenger
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
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
