Lyrics Steve Lukather

Steve Lukather

Stab In The Back

Vodka, on the rocks

One more for my best friend

Long time, how you been

What lie should I tell him

'cause the scar inside is still there

Six piece little band

A hand shake was the contract

Ink pen in his hand

Getting ready for the last act

As i drink the last poisonous drop

The innocence of youth I had

Slithered out and left me with the

Tab in the end it's like a stab...a stab in the back

All that's left to do is just to stagger out

All the shoulda coulda beens don't matter now

And the cold ventura wind from the breath of his last spin

In the end its just a stab in the back

Phone call on his cell

Went straight to his voice mail

At first glance, who could tell

He got his Rolex at wholesale

As I speak of behalf of the fools

The only page that's left to turn

I should tear it out and watch it burn

And someday laugh at the stab...stab in my back
