Steve
Alec Shane 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"
I know the Bible isn't perfect
Je sais que la Bible n'est pas parfaite
'Cause it left one person out
Parce qu'elle a oublié une personne
There was Adam, there was Eve
Il y avait Adam, il y avait Eve
And there was someone else around
Et il y avait quelqu'un d'autre autour
Yeah, I think his name was Steve
Oui, je pense que son nom était Steve
And he was passing through town
Et il passait par la ville
When he heard a snake a-whispering
Quand il a entendu un serpent chuchoter
To Adam in the garden
À Adam dans le jardin
"Take the fruit, it's good for you"
"Prends le fruit, il est bon pour toi"
Steve said, "I beg your pardon
Steve a dit, "Je vous demande pardon
I know it's not my business
Je sais que ce n'est pas mes affaires
But will you just hear me out?"
Mais voulez-vous juste m'écouter?"
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Il a dit, "Je ne mentirais pas
You should not go to that tree
Tu ne devrais pas aller à cet arbre
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
Le serpent sait que la pomme pousse d'une graine interdite
Oh, you want what you can't have
Oh, tu veux ce que tu ne peux pas avoir
But you've got all the things you need"
Mais tu as toutes les choses dont tu as besoin"
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
Il y avait Adam, il y avait Eve, et il y avait Steve
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
Il a dit, "Adam, ne te laisse pas tromper par le serpent
Don't risk it all for a taste
Ne risque pas tout pour un goût
Oh, what a waste
Oh, quel gâchis
To have everything and give it all away"
Pour avoir tout et tout donner"
Adam looked around and as he wrestled with his fate
Adam regarda autour de lui et alors qu'il luttait avec son destin
Steve and Eve rolled up their sleeves to wrestle with that snake
Steve et Eve retroussèrent leurs manches pour lutter contre ce serpent
In the midst of all the chaos
Au milieu de tout le chaos
Steve was still screaming out
Steve criait toujours
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Il a dit, "Je ne mentirais pas
You should not go to that tree
Tu ne devrais pas aller à cet arbre
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
Le serpent sait que la pomme pousse d'une graine interdite
Oh, you want what you can't have
Oh, tu veux ce que tu ne peux pas avoir
But you've got all the things you need"
Mais tu as toutes les choses dont tu as besoin"
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
Il y avait Adam, il y avait Eve, et il y avait Steve
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
Il a dit, "Adam, ne te laisse pas tromper par le serpent
Don't risk it all for a taste
Ne risque pas tout pour un goût
Oh, what a waste
Oh, quel gâchis
To have everything and give it all away"
Pour avoir tout et tout donner"
Sometimes I feel like Adam
Parfois, je me sens comme Adam
'Cause I've got more than I need
Parce que j'ai plus que ce dont j'ai besoin
But even when I have it all
Mais même quand j'ai tout
I want what's out of reach
Je veux ce qui est hors de portée
Maybe I should learn my lesson
Peut-être que je devrais apprendre ma leçon
Like Steve was talkin' to me
Comme Steve me parlait
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Il a dit, "Je ne mentirais pas
You should not go to that tree
Tu ne devrais pas aller à cet arbre
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
Le serpent sait que la pomme pousse d'une graine interdite
Oh, you want what you can't have
Oh, tu veux ce que tu ne peux pas avoir
But you've got all the things you need"
Mais tu as toutes les choses dont tu as besoin"
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
Il y avait Adam, il y avait Eve, et il y avait Steve
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
Il a dit, "Adam, ne te laisse pas tromper par le serpent
Don't risk it all for a taste
Ne risque pas tout pour un goût
Oh, what a waste
Oh, quel gâchis
To have everything and give it all away"
Pour avoir tout et tout donner"
I know the Bible isn't perfect
Eu sei que a Bíblia não é perfeita
'Cause it left one person out
Porque deixou uma pessoa de fora
There was Adam, there was Eve
Havia Adão, havia Eva
And there was someone else around
E havia mais alguém por perto
Yeah, I think his name was Steve
Sim, acho que o nome dele era Steve
And he was passing through town
E ele estava de passagem pela cidade
When he heard a snake a-whispering
Quando ouviu uma cobra sussurrando
To Adam in the garden
Para Adão no jardim
"Take the fruit, it's good for you"
"Pegue a fruta, é bom para você"
Steve said, "I beg your pardon
Steve disse, "Peço desculpas
I know it's not my business
Eu sei que não é da minha conta
But will you just hear me out?"
Mas você vai me ouvir?"
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Ele disse, "Eu não mentiria
You should not go to that tree
Você não deve ir àquela árvore
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
A serpente sabe que a maçã cresce de uma semente proibida
Oh, you want what you can't have
Ah, você quer o que não pode ter
But you've got all the things you need"
Mas você tem todas as coisas que precisa"
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
Havia Adão, havia Eva, e havia Steve
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
Ele disse, "Adão, não seja enganado pela cobra
Don't risk it all for a taste
Não arrisque tudo por um gosto
Oh, what a waste
Ah, que desperdício
To have everything and give it all away"
Ter tudo e dar tudo embora"
Adam looked around and as he wrestled with his fate
Adão olhou em volta e enquanto lutava com seu destino
Steve and Eve rolled up their sleeves to wrestle with that snake
Steve e Eva arregaçaram as mangas para lutar com a cobra
In the midst of all the chaos
No meio de todo o caos
Steve was still screaming out
Steve ainda estava gritando
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Ele disse, "Eu não mentiria
You should not go to that tree
Você não deve ir àquela árvore
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
A serpente sabe que a maçã cresce de uma semente proibida
Oh, you want what you can't have
Ah, você quer o que não pode ter

Mas você tem todas as coisas que precisa"
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve

Não arrisque tudo por um gosto
Oh, what a waste
Ah, que desperdício
To have everything and give it all away"
Ter tudo e dar tudo embora"
Sometimes I feel like Adam
Às vezes me sinto como Adão
'Cause I've got more than I need
Porque eu tenho mais do que preciso
But even when I have it all
Mas mesmo quando tenho tudo
I want what's out of reach
Eu quero o que está fora de alcance
Maybe I should learn my lesson
Talvez eu devesse aprender minha lição
Like Steve was talkin' to me
Como Steve estava falando comigo
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Ele disse, "Eu não mentiria
You should not go to that tree
Você não deve ir àquela árvore

I know the Bible isn't perfect
Sé que la Biblia no es perfecta
'Cause it left one person out
Porque dejó a una persona fuera
There was Adam, there was Eve
Había Adán, había Eva
And there was someone else around
Y había alguien más por ahí
Yeah, I think his name was Steve
Sí, creo que su nombre era Steve
And he was passing through town
Y estaba de paso por el pueblo
When he heard a snake a-whispering
Cuando escuchó a una serpiente susurrando
To Adam in the garden
A Adán en el jardín
"Take the fruit, it's good for you"
"Toma la fruta, es buena para ti"
Steve said, "I beg your pardon
Steve dijo, "Pido disculpas
I know it's not my business
Sé que no es asunto mío
But will you just hear me out?"
¿Pero me escucharías?"
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Él dijo, "No mentiría
You should not go to that tree
No deberías ir a ese árbol
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
La serpiente sabe que la manzana crece de una semilla prohibida
Oh, you want what you can't have
Oh, quieres lo que no puedes tener
But you've got all the things you need"
Pero tienes todas las cosas que necesitas"
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
Había Adán, había Eva, y había Steve
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
Él dijo, "Adán, no te dejes engañar por la serpiente
Don't risk it all for a taste
No lo arriesgues todo por un gusto
Oh, what a waste
Oh, qué desperdicio
To have everything and give it all away"
Tener todo y darlo todo"
Adam looked around and as he wrestled with his fate
Adán miró a su alrededor y mientras luchaba con su destino
Steve and Eve rolled up their sleeves to wrestle with that snake
Steve y Eva se arremangaron para luchar con esa serpiente
In the midst of all the chaos
En medio de todo el caos
Steve was still screaming out
Steve seguía gritando
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Él dijo, "No mentiría
You should not go to that tree
No deberías ir a ese árbol

Don't risk it all for a taste
No lo arriesgues todo por un gusto
Oh, what a waste
Oh, qué desperdicio
To have everything and give it all away"
Tener todo y darlo todo"
Sometimes I feel like Adam
A veces me siento como Adán
'Cause I've got more than I need
Porque tengo más de lo que necesito
But even when I have it all
Pero incluso cuando lo tengo todo
I want what's out of reach
Quiero lo que está fuera de mi alcance
Maybe I should learn my lesson
Quizás debería aprender mi lección
Like Steve was talkin' to me
Como Steve me estaba hablando

I know the Bible isn't perfect
Ich weiß, dass die Bibel nicht perfekt ist
'Cause it left one person out
Denn sie hat eine Person ausgelassen
There was Adam, there was Eve
Es gab Adam, es gab Eva
And there was someone else around
Und es war noch jemand anders da
Yeah, I think his name was Steve
Ja, ich glaube, sein Name war Steve
And he was passing through town
Und er war auf der Durchreise durch die Stadt
When he heard a snake a-whispering
Als er eine Schlange flüstern hörte
To Adam in the garden
Zu Adam im Garten
"Take the fruit, it's good for you"
„Nimm die Frucht, sie ist gut für dich“
Steve said, "I beg your pardon
Steve sagte: „Ich bitte um Verzeihung
I know it's not my business
Ich weiß, es geht mich nichts an
But will you just hear me out?"
Aber hörst du mir bitte zu?“
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Er sagte: „Ich würde nicht lügen
You should not go to that tree
Du solltest nicht zu diesem Baum gehen
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
Die Schlange weiß, dass der Apfel aus einem verbotenen Samen wächst
Oh, you want what you can't have
Oh, du willst, was du nicht haben kannst
But you've got all the things you need"
Aber du hast alles, was du brauchst“
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
Es gab Adam, es gab Eva, und es gab Steve
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
Er sagte: „Adam, lass dich nicht von der Schlange täuschen
Don't risk it all for a taste
Riskiere nicht alles für einen Geschmack
Oh, what a waste
Oh, was für eine Verschwendung
To have everything and give it all away"
Alles zu haben und alles wegzugeben“
Adam looked around and as he wrestled with his fate
Adam sah sich um und während er mit seinem Schicksal rang
Steve and Eve rolled up their sleeves to wrestle with that snake
Rollten Steve und Eva ihre Ärmel hoch, um mit der Schlange zu ringen
In the midst of all the chaos
Inmitten des ganzen Chaos
Steve was still screaming out
Schrie Steve immer noch
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Er sagte: „Ich würde nicht lügen
You should not go to that tree
Du solltest nicht zu diesem Baum gehen
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
Die Schlange weiß, dass der Apfel aus einem verbotenen Samen wächst

Don't risk it all for a taste
Riskiere nicht alles für einen Geschmack
Oh, what a waste
Oh, was für eine Verschwendung
To have everything and give it all away"
Alles zu haben und alles wegzugeben“
Sometimes I feel like Adam
Manchmal fühle ich mich wie Adam
'Cause I've got more than I need
Denn ich habe mehr als ich brauche
But even when I have it all
Aber selbst wenn ich alles habe
I want what's out of reach
Will ich, was außer Reichweite ist
Maybe I should learn my lesson
Vielleicht sollte ich meine Lektion lernen
Like Steve was talkin' to me
Wie Steve zu mir sprach
He said, "I wouldn't lie

I know the Bible isn't perfect
So che la Bibbia non è perfetta
'Cause it left one person out
Perché ha lasciato fuori una persona
There was Adam, there was Eve
C'era Adamo, c'era Eva
And there was someone else around
E c'era qualcun altro nei paraggi
Yeah, I think his name was Steve
Sì, penso che il suo nome fosse Steve
And he was passing through town
E stava passando per la città
When he heard a snake a-whispering
Quando sentì un serpente sussurrare
To Adam in the garden
Ad Adamo nel giardino
"Take the fruit, it's good for you"
"Prendi il frutto, è buono per te"
Steve said, "I beg your pardon
Steve disse, "Chiedo scusa
I know it's not my business
So che non sono affari miei
But will you just hear me out?"
Ma mi ascolterai?"
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Disse, "Non mentirei
You should not go to that tree
Non dovresti andare a quel albero
The serpent knows the apple grows from a forbidden seed
Il serpente sa che la mela cresce da un seme proibito
Oh, you want what you can't have
Oh, vuoi ciò che non puoi avere
But you've got all the things you need"
Ma hai tutte le cose di cui hai bisogno"
There was Adam, there was Eve, and there was Steve
C'era Adamo, c'era Eva, e c'era Steve
He said, "Adam, don't be fooled by the snake
Disse, "Adamo, non farti ingannare dal serpente
Don't risk it all for a taste
Non rischiare tutto per un assaggio
Oh, what a waste
Oh, che spreco
To have everything and give it all away"
Avere tutto e darlo via"
Adam looked around and as he wrestled with his fate
Adamo guardò in giro e mentre lottava con il suo destino
Steve and Eve rolled up their sleeves to wrestle with that snake
Steve ed Eva si arrotolarono le maniche per lottare con quel serpente
In the midst of all the chaos
Nel mezzo di tutto il caos
Steve was still screaming out
Steve stava ancora urlando
He said, "I wouldn't lie
Disse, "Non mentirei
You should not go to that tree

Sometimes I feel like Adam
A volte mi sento come Adamo
'Cause I've got more than I need
Perché ho più di quanto mi serve
But even when I have it all
Ma anche quando ho tutto
I want what's out of reach
Voglio ciò che è fuori dalla mia portata
Maybe I should learn my lesson
Forse dovrei imparare la mia lezione
