Steve

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 passin' through town
When he heard a snake whisperin' 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 screamin' 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
