Messenger

I am the messenger for the city I live in
I run legal documents and war plans
I'm with a girl who's stationed far from here but
These letters that I carry go past there
oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
I would be shot on sight if I showed my face
Tonight I carry plans to attack her base
I begged her see me in (see me up)
I begged her see me in
They're coming this morning (see me up)
But this window won't open (see me up)
I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time (oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo)
oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo
And watch the city burn tonight... (oo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo...)
