[Intro]
But, uh, on the Faces' first and so far only LP called "First Step", people find this
And this is "Wicked Messenger"
[Verse 1]
There was a wicked messenger
From Eli he did come
With a mind that multiplied the smallest matter
When questioned who had sent for him
He answered with his thumb
His mind, it could not speak, but only flatter
[Verse 2]
He stayed behind the assembly hall
There that he made his bed
And oftentimеs he could be seen returning
[Verse 3]
Thе leaves began the falling and the seas began to part
The people that confronted him, they were many
[Verse 4]
Leaves began the falling and the seas began to part
The people that confronted him, they were many
And he was told these last few words which opened up his heart
"Cannot bring good news, then don't bring any"
[Refrain]
"If you can't bring good news, then don't bring any"
[Outro]
Now that was, uh, Dylan's "Wicked Messenger"
For those of you who have any doubts about it, I'll give you the, uh, lineup of the band
Got Rod Stewart, vocals
Ken Jones, drums
Ian McLagan, organ, is that pronounced right?
Is that, is that how you say it?
He never pronounces it right, okay
I've always wondered about that actually
Ron Lane, bass
And Ron Wood and guitar
