Don't Shoot The Messenger Lyrics - Sunburn - Gordie Sampson

Everybody likes you 

Because you got that special way 

You shimmer and you shine 

And you drop the ball sometimes 

But that's a small price to pay 

I don't mean to speak in riddles 

I'm just trying to make you see 

And so true are all my words 

As the Gospel of the Church 

And they will sting you like a bee 

Shame on you 

For bringing this to my attention 

And I know this hurts you so 

But I just had to let you know 

Don't shoot the messenger 

Know that I will give up everything 

To make a brand new start 

Baby, sticks and stones 

Will never break my bones 

This is going to break my heart 

She said, shame on you 

For bringing this to my attention 

And I know this hurts you so 

But I just had to let you know 

Don't shoot the messenger 

She said, shame on you 

For bringing this to my attention 

And I know it hurts you so 

But I just had to let you know 

Don't shoot the messenger 

I can walk on water 

Or turn it into wine 

But I can't tell you this 

That every single little kiss 

A taste of trouble you might find 

She said, shame on you 

For bringing this to my attention 

And I know it hurts you so 

But I just had to let you know 

Don't shoot the messenger 

She said, shame on you 

For bringing this to my attention 

And I know it hurts you so 

But I just had to let you know 

Don't shoot the messenger 

She said, shame on you 

For bringing this to my attention 

And I know it hurts you so
