I am the message boy
Moving down the street
I'll be moving in and out of traffic

I've got a businessman's deadline to meet
I might bring you good news
A message boy does that

I might bring you bad news
A message boy does that
The words they might be beautiful

Then again they might annoy
All I ask is remember I'm only the message boy


Only the message boy, only the message boy

There is nothing in this world

That can stop me from my task
I'll respect you and your privacy
Where and when is all I'll ask

I might bring you good news
A message boy does that
I might bring you bad news

A message boy does that
The words they might be beautiful
Then again they might annoy

All I ask is remember I'm only the message boy

Only the message boy, only the message boy

Don't give me credit don't give me blame
I do what I do, you know me by name
I'm the message boy, only the message boy
