[Verse 1:]
All of my love and most of my fears
Been coming on strong for most of my years
Add up and end up in a song
Cellophane tweeds and revenue streams
Are blocking my shots and killin' my dreams
That showed me how to be the cause
Ooh ahh, yella, ooh ahh, hey ah what now?
[Chorus:]
It's a 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
Ex-communicated 'cause there ain't no guarantee
Ooh ahh, yella, ooh ahh, yeah
[Verse 2:]
All of my friends and enemies near
They 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!
[Chorus:]
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
Ex-communicated 'cause there ain't no guarantee
[Chorus:]
It's a lifetime of a strange man, that's right
It's a long time for me, let's see
She wants to belong and I want to be free
Ex-communicated 'cause there ain't no guarantee
It's a 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.
