A relaxed disco/soul song about a man trying to declare his love. Features male vocal, funky guitars. Sounds like Daft Punk and Smokey Robinson had a baby. 1980, vintage, could be playing at the prom when a shy guy sees the girl of his dreams.

| Lyrics: | Bang! Bang! ! Bang! Bang! The cat had got my tongue It’s hard to say it right But now I’m shouting out my love for you tonight Have mercy on my heart Put down that forty-five I’m getting’ down upon my knees to stay alive..oooh Don’t shoot the messenger! He just loves you You made this madness start What could I do? Don’t shoot the messenger! He’s just a fool He’s gone and lost his heart He’s lost his cool…don’t shoot the messenger (Bang! Bang!) Don’t shoot the messenger (Bang! Bang!) I’ll keep it short ‘n’ sweet My last words they may be You got me at your feet - so please don’t shoot, ba-by! Have mercy on my heart Put down that forty-five I’m getting’ down upon my knees to stay alive..oooh Don’t shoot the messenger! He just loves you You made this madness start What could I do? Don’t shoot the messenger! He’s just a fool He’s gone and lost his heart He’s lost his cool…don’t shoot the messenger (Bang! Bang!) Don’t shoot the messenger (Bang! Bang!) Ev’ry word I say of lovin’ One more nail in my coffin But I really am way past carin’ My love I am declarin’ ooooh |
