There Gwas a wicked messenger
From Eli he did Fcome
With a Gmind that multiplied the smallest matter
When Gquestioned who had sent for him
He answered with his Fthumb
For his Gtongue it could not speak but only flatter

He Gstayed behind the assembly hall
It was there he made his Fbed
GOftentimes he could be seen returning
GUntil one day he just appeared
With a note in his hand which Fread
"The Gsoles of my feet I swear they're burning"

Oh the Gleaves began to falling
And the seas began to Fpart
And the Gpeople that confronted him were many
And Ghe was told but these few words
Which opened up his Fheart
"If ye Gcannot bring good news then don't bring any"
