lyrics
It’s 4am in Garwood and a basement light is still on
Citation’s leaking oil in the driveway
And there are puppets on the lawn
The videotape is rolling
As Cigar smoke fills the air
Steuben plays piano
All sanity beware
His name is written there in chalk
Sprayed by the hose off the sidewalk
And there he goes again
Well what will it be this week
Will the Zeppelin go down in flames?
Or will the show shoot on location
At some remote town in Maine?
There’s a song written in tribute
To the covers of TV Guide
Steuben plays piano
The melody of jailhouse pride
What lies in the “Fun-Corner?”
A clapper hat as the headlines blur -
by from the New York Post
Aw, Steuben how we miss you
And your ever-zany ways
There’s no way we could forget you
Or those Qua-Qua Quality days
It’s time for “Pillow Talk” now
As the lit cigar explodes
Steuben plays piano
In the unfinished episode
The basement lies in darkness now
A brilliant life cut short somehow
Why did you have to go?
Citation’s leaking oil in the driveway
And there are puppets on the lawn
The videotape is rolling
As Cigar smoke fills the air
Steuben plays piano
All sanity beware
His name is written there in chalk
Sprayed by the hose off the sidewalk
And there he goes again
Well what will it be this week
Will the Zeppelin go down in flames?
Or will the show shoot on location
At some remote town in Maine?
There’s a song written in tribute
To the covers of TV Guide
Steuben plays piano
The melody of jailhouse pride
What lies in the “Fun-Corner?”
A clapper hat as the headlines blur -
by from the New York Post
Aw, Steuben how we miss you
And your ever-zany ways
There’s no way we could forget you
Or those Qua-Qua Quality days
It’s time for “Pillow Talk” now
As the lit cigar explodes
Steuben plays piano
In the unfinished episode
The basement lies in darkness now
A brilliant life cut short somehow
Why did you have to go?
