Lyrics[]

All of my love
And most of my fears
Been comin' on strong
For most of my
Years add up
And end up in a song

Cellophone tweeds
And revenue streams
Blockin' my shots
And killin' my
Dreams that showed me
How to be the cause

Ooh ahh, yella, ooh ahh, hey ah what now?

It's the lifetime of a strange man, that's right
It's a long time for me, I see
She wants to belong and
I want to be free
Excommunicated
'Cause there ain't no guarantee

Ooh ahh, yella, ooh ahh, yeah

All of my friends
and enemies near
Were part of this dance
That put me right
Here we go
So glad I got this chance

Better known plans
and lesser known schemes
Were all about love
and less about
Me I'd have to say
She wore the pants

That's oh!

It's the lifetime of a strange man, that's right
It's a long time for me, uh-huh
She wants to belong and
I want to be free
Excommunicated
'Cause there ain't no guarantee

It's the lifetime of a strange man, that's right
It's a long time for me, lets see
She wants to belong and
I want to be free
Excommunicated
'Cause there ain't no guarantee

It's the lifetime of a strange man, that's me
It's a long time for me, uh-uh
She wants to be rich
And I want to be free
Keep your plans elastic
'Cause there ain't no guarantee
