Steven's Last Night In Town
"A guy came to visit us in North Carolina and he hung out for a while, but
then he wouldn't leave. We must have thrown five or six going-away parties
for him. So I wrote him this song and gave it to him."
-Ben
Everyone gather round now,
Sing him a song
Just in case by tomorrow
It happens he's gone
For two weeks and seven days
Our fair foreign friend
I have this feeling
We might never see Steven again
We thought he was gone
But he's come back again
Last week it was funny
Now the joke's wearing thin
Everyone knows now
That every night now
Will be Steven's last night in town
He's charmed everyone here
Except for Tamara Eastern
Who later revealed to him
Her innermost secrets
Won us over with stories
About Linda McCartney
Lost points with the ladies
For saying that he couldn't love a woman with
...Cellulite!
We were talking about something
Seems it was funny
Then Steven got quiet
I think Steven was mad
Maybe he wasn't mad
But we felt really strange for a moment
Then the moment was gone and forgotten about...
