"Beautiful Steven" lyrics

"Beautiful Steven"

[Fran Keaney:]
Call it what it is
Don't leave me waitin'
Cut your face again
Winter light fadin'
Whiskey in the jar
Old man's at the pawn shop
Walked up in his robe
Hit at the bus stop

[Tom Russo:]
I once had it made
Never strayed very far
And it's Steven on the breeze
Callin' out for the keys

[Fran Keaney:]
I wanna stand on the edge again
I wanna step off (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Play it where it lands
Callin' for hours
Easy in the sand
Hard in the showers
Scuff my blinding shoes
Smoke up in the alley
You disappear again
With Catholic Sally, oh no

[Tom Russo:]
I once tried to say
In the grey concrete yard
And they looked the other way
As Steven went in hard (Ooh)

[Fran Keaney:]
I wanna stand on the edge again
I wanna step off (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

I wanna, I wanna go
