Steve - Alec Benjamin

I know the Bible isn’t perfect

'Cause it left one person out

There was Adam, there was Eve

And there was someone else around

Yeah, I think his name was Steve

And he was passing through town

When he heard a snake a-whispering

To Adam in the garden

«Take the fruit, it’s good for you»

Steve said, «I beg your pardon

I know it’s not my business

But will you just hear me out»

He said, «I wouldn’t lie

You should not go to that tree

The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed

Oh, you want what you can’t have

But you’ve got all the things you need»

There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve

He said, «Adam, don’t be fooled by the snake

Don’t risk it all for a taste

Oh, what a waste

To have everything and give it all away»

Adam looked around and as he wrestled with his fate

Steve and Eve rolled up their sleeves to wrestle with that snake

In the midst of all the chaos

Steve was still screaming out

He said, «I wouldn’t lie

You should not go to that tree

The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed

Oh, you want what you can’t have

But you’ve got all the things you need»

There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve

He said, «Adam, don’t be fooled by the snake

Don’t risk it all for a taste

Oh, what a waste

To have everything and give it all away»

Sometimes I feel like Adam

'Cause I’ve got more than I need

But even when I have it all

I want what’s out of reach

Maybe I should learn my lesson

Like Steve was talkin' to me

He said, «I wouldn’t lie

You should not go to that tree

The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed

Oh, you want what you can’t have

But you’ve got all the things you need»

There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve

He said, «Adam, don’t be fooled by the snake

Don’t risk it all for a taste

Oh, what a waste

To have everything and give it all away»
