Steven’s Last Night in Town Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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]
But we thought he was gone
And now he's come back again
Last week it was funny
And now the joke's wearing thin
Cause everyone knows now, that every night now
Will be Steven's last night in town
[Verse 2]
He's charmed 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]
But we thought he was gone
And now he's come back again
Last week it was funny
And now the joke's wearing thin
Cause everyone knows now, that every night now
Will be Steven's last night in town
Kick that shit say
Kick that shit say
Kick that shit say
Kick that shit say
[Verse 3]
We were talking 'bout something, seems like was funny
And then Steven got quiet, I think Steven was mad
Maybe he wasn't mad, but we felt very strange
In the moment, but the moment was passed
And forgotten about
[Chorus]
But we thought he was gone
And now he's come back again
Last week it was funny
And now the joke's wearing thin
Cause everyone knows now, that every night now
Will be Steven's last night in town

A lot of people ask about that one. I remember I was at the after-party for Saturday Night Live. I didn’t play SNL but I was there watching. I was sitting with a table of their writers, and every new writer that would come and bring a beer to the table would say, ‘Hey, “Steven’s Last Night in Town”—...
