Shoot the Messenger - KING ZEPHA

Lyrics by：Samuel Thornton

Composed by：Samuel Thornton

They pit the labourer against the foreigner

They call a traveller a lazy scavenger

They use the newspaper to stir up hate in you

We need a takeover let's shoot the messenger

Propaganda fabricated facts

Leading weapons of the ruling class

Just as deadly as a poison gas

So shoot the messenger

They could enlighten us instead they frighten us

When they could pacify they choose to vilify

They use the newspaper to stir up hate in you

We need a takeover let's shoot the messenger

Propaganda fabricated facts

Leading weapons of the ruling class

Just as deadly as a poison gas

So shoot the messenger

Shoot the messenger boycott the papers
