Cooper, Alice - Steven Lyrics






I don't want to see you go I don't even want to be there
I will cover up my eyes and pray it goes away
You've only lived a minute of your life I must be dreaming please stop screaming
I don't like to hear you cry you just don't know how deep that cuts me
So I will cover up my eyes and it will go away
You've only lived a minute of your life I must be dreaming please stop screaming
Steven Steven I hear my name Steven is someone calling me I hear my name
Steven that icy breath it whispers screams of pain
I don't want to feel you die but if that's the way that god has planned you
I'll put pennies on your eyes and it will go away see
You've only lived a minute of your life I must be dreaming
Steven is someone calling me no Steven I think I hear a voice it's outside the door
Steven I hear my name Steven is someone calling me I hear my name
Steven what do you want Steven what do you want what do you want what do you want
Steven Steven Steven I hear my name

  9. c.... M....

    WHY HE IS KNOWN BECAUSE OF POISON???I FEEL BAD THAT I NEVER APPRECIATE HIM BECAUSE I NEVER DIG HIM ENOUGH BECAUSE OF POISON

  10. b.... g....

    This live concert production will never be topped, and anyone who was lucky enough to see it, 'nuff said.

  15. M.... N....

    His vocals on this is fantastic an chilling

  16. V.... ....

    My Step Dads name is Steven. He loves this song because his name is the chorus. I told him the song is actually about the moment in all our lives when our inner child dies. Most people don't remember the exact moment its usually during a string of unfortunate life changing events. I lost mine when I stood up against someone I feared to protect someone I loved. Thats when I knew I had to let my innocence go. Because during that moment I felt a deep smoldering fire inside of me that was covered by a silly little boy to shy for his own good. I lost my inner child to a inferno that was raging in the deep darkest part of my soul i knew I wasn't necessarily a bad human being but i would never be a angel. I always knew that the light wasn't gonna shine on me like it did the other kids. I always feel alone and people have a hard time relating to me. Its like swimming into a School of Fish try to relate only to be avoided by the group for sure. Only to once again

  17. l.... g....

    I remember I told a friend I liked Alice Cooper, He said really, turned down the lights and put this song, wtf, very cool song, that was 34 years ago, still sends chills down my spine.

  18. T.... C....

    Alice cooper was my first favorite musician seeing him in concert at the age of 10. I got into him because of his appearance on the Muppet Show Halloween special. It kinda just snowballed after that haha

  19. �.... ....

    Johnny Depp 주연 영화에 잠깐 나왔었는데

  20. T.... C....

    I love the pastell aesthetic of this album, and the songs are awesome

    Still I can't help but think about Steven Universe even though I can in no way relate it to that

  21. D.... T....

    Love that this song is back on the concert set list.

  25. M.... D....

  26. K.... H....

    I like the fact that Alice wrote a song for me before I was born.

  27. M.... L....

    I remember wen I was younger. I would jam with this. My Dad hated it. But he would also say. dam boy. you it good. But I hate it.. I use to know every note. every trick. I swear I smashed 3 guitars for this song. AND THEY WHERE NOT CHEAT EITHER

  28. M.... ....

  29. m.... t....

    I'm listening to this for the 1st time. Very surreal as my me is Steven too. I couldn't even finish this song.

    I believe that my last days are manifested in this place and I have a limit to be alive. I Robot

  31. R.... H....

  33. M.... M....

    Alice Cooper made a movie cold Welcome To My Nightmare and I saw it in the movie theater in 1975 I was 16 years old it was a 12 showing midnight movies that used to have. Back in the day. We were all smoking pot and drinking beers. The monster Stephen came out when they was singing the song scared the heck out of me. Love that stuff it was good old times

  37. J.... M....

    A hard thing to do with concept albums like this. Kudos to Atlantic Records. And, of course to whomever posted this.

  38. D.... _....

    I remember my dad and older brothers playing this when I was a kid the age of 5 or 6. This album terrified the hell out of me but loved it at the same time........ Now I am a metal head bass player who still in his 40's blasts this loud enough for the neighborhood to enjoy

  39. N.... T....

    Hahahahahahaha . most brilliant song ever....

  40. d.... ....

  47. g.... v....

    the original halloween soundtrack

  48. F.... A....

    Most sad song ever...

  49. T.... M....

    My best friend died less than a year ago. He introduced me to Alice Cooper and to this song when I was a child, and I always loved it. In his last months, while he was sick, I bought us tickets to go see Alice play the Olympia Theatre in Dublin. Despite his best efforts, he was too sick to attend and he was so disappointed. He died not long after from his health issues.

    This is the first time I've listened to Alice again since he died, and I can feel him here with me singing along. I can put his death aside 99% of the time but, hearing Alice, it's all I can feel. I miss you George.

    T.... M....

    Thomas Maher so sorry

    T.... M....

    I am so sorry for your loss brother

    T.... M....

    God bless you George

    T.... M....

    Very sorry for your loss 💔 💔💔and may he rest in Peace 🙏😰, in the heavenly kingdom🙏🙏🙏🙏

    T.... M....

    Cool ass Parents

    L.... M....

  52. W.... C....

    Lotta young people here. - This song is about the Apostle Steven being stoned to death.
    That's what Vince said on camera, a longgggg time ago.

    W.... C....

    really?

  53. k.... h....

    Thank God For Alice Cooper ! 🙏✨💜✨🙏

  54. s.... s....

    I'm trolling my work mate with this on my phone.lol

  55. J.... K....

    This song is perfect, the intro reminds me of the exorcist theme how Mike Oldfield does it!!

    J.... K....

    Joe Kauffman, actually it’s a direct borrowing from Johan Sebastian Bach’s Toccata and Fugue In D Minor.

  56. D.... F....

    I listen to Alice Cooper (Steven) when a friend or family member passes away. Ive been listening to this song way to much lately ! Why is god taking so many people away from me ?

    D.... F....

    sorry to hear that friend

  57. d.... ....

    I must be dreaming , please stop screaming , wake up steven , its time to go now

  58. D.... O....

    I actually had 'breakfast' with Bob Ezrin (Founder / producer of Alice, Producer - Kiss, Produced The Wall, Pink Floyd, etc.) I was late, hungover, and basically insulted him and everyone in attendence. Oh well, Sorry Bob! (He was a nice guy.)

  59. S.... W....

    The first time I heard "Steven" I was higher than hell and I swore that my mom was in the back seat of my car saying "Steven come home", it's been "My Song" ever since.

  60. M.... S....

    She sounds one hell of a mother....

  61. M.... S....

    The piano is Halloween BEFORE Halloween, you don't suppose John Carpenter lifted this from three years before?

    M.... S....

    Not Halloween, The Fog. But there's enough of a difference between the two that I don't think JC lifted anything.--> https://youtu.be/FSMHVySGFzc

  62. S.... ....

    THIS IS ABUSIVE !!! SO I"M TOLD !!! F"KING MUSSLE BULL SHIT :)

    S.... ....

    BTW NOT COOPER BTW !!!!

  63. K.... C....

    Amazing, second song I've ever heard from him, and I can't hear it enough. Alice will always be a rock icon.

  64. A.... T....

    One of my favorite from Alice Cooper, it's heartbreaking, unusual and very mysterious.

  65. F.... 1....

  67. F.... 1....

  68. R.... M....

    I don't want to see you go,
    I don't even want to be there

    I will cover up my eyes

    And pray it goes away

    You've only lived a minute of your life

    I must be dreaming,

    Please stop screaming

    I don't like to hear you cry

    You just don't know

    How deep that cuts me

    So I will cover up my eyes

    And it will go away

    You've only lived a minute of your life

    I must be dreaming,

    Please stop screaming

    Steven

    I hear my name (Steven)

    Is someone calling me?

    I hear my name (Steven)

    That icy breath,

    It whispers screams of pain

    I don't want to feel you die,

    But if that's the way

    That God has planned you,

    I'll put pennies on your eyes

    And it will go away, see?

    You've only lived a minute of your life

    I must be dreaming,

    Please stop screaming

    (Steven) (Is someone calling me? No)

  71. I.... N....

    His alter ego

  72. F.... N....

    How have i gone this long without hearing this song before.

    F.... N....

    I think it's because it's become a forgotten track over the years.

    F.... N....

    Unless you have the album you would,nt not played on radio it's too long, but it is one of Alice's best, same as cold ethyl, I have ALL of his albums on CD, I'm now 63

  73. S.... F....

  74. c.... ....

    the thoughts of a child before the abortion in 2018

    coastalcowboy707 thst makes literally no sense. Lol

  75. S.... ....

    Bought this album in 1975 and love it as much today in 2019 where I will be 59 years old. I listen to "Years ago" and "Steven" over and over - must have been hundreds and hundreds of times over the years. It's still so touching, sad and amazing. I truly love it to death. Definitely Alice Cooper's Master Piece. The guitar work of Hunter and Wagner are second to none. So melodic, powerful and just so right!!

    S.... ....

    STD882 love it hint of tubular bells in song

  76. A.... W....

    My auntie said I was strange being into Alice Cooper age 7 ,haha, I think she was correct.

  77. r.... p....

    I met Alice Cooper on a golf course in Arizona what a nice guy so his song no more Mr nice guy doesn't quite fit him

  78. S.... D....

    Once received a lap dance from a crazy stripper. She asked if I liked Alice Cooper and put this song on for the lap dance. Crazy sexy lady! Crazy good song!
