Ben Folds Five - Steven's Last Night in Town lyrics

rate me

Everyone gather round now

sing us 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

CHORUS

We thought he was gone

But he's come back again

Last week it was funny

but now the joke's wearing thin

'cause everyone knows now

that every night now

will be Steven's last night

in town

He's charmed [live:fucked] everyone here

Except Tamara Easter

who later revealed to him

her innermost secrets

Won us over with stories

about Linda McCartney

Lost points with the ladies

for saying he couldn't love a

woman with cellulite

CHORUS

[on Demo: I'm wondering how

your decorations are standing up.

In fact, the lawn's looking a little

shabby, but we can discuss that later.

How's the chimney stack doing?

And the door arches, they're OK?]

We were talking 'bout something

Seems like was funny

then Steven got quiet

I think Steven was mad [live: pissed]

Maybe he wasn't mad

But we felt very strange in

the moment

But the moment was passed

and forgotten about

CHORUS
