lyrics

Everyone’s wearing the latest designs
The newest commercials play with their minds
But there’s nothing to wish for and nothing to chase
For a man out of time, a man out of place

He doesn’t dress up or go shopping for clothes
He has comfortable shoes, he has two pair of those
He doesn’t go far and he doesn’t go fast
He fixes the things that were made to last

He has no celphone, no answering machine
His old typewriter it has no screen
He’s never been to cyberspace
Man out of time man out of place

Man out of time in his house in the woods
He’d like to just keep it that way if he could
Buildings go up and people move closer
First you hear the chain saws and then the bull dozers

**Man out of time man out of place
Man out of step with the whole human race
He doesn’t consume and he tries not to waste
Man out of time, man out of place

Any books that he owns are long out of print
He doesn’t like Bill or Hillary Clinton
He’s a stubborn man, he’s stuck in his ways
Man out of time man out of place

Gadgets that cook, gadgets that clean
Gadgets that do everything in between
He still does things the old fashioned ways
Man out of time, man out of place

He’s got no checkbook, no credit cards
Just some old keepsakes and replacement parts
He’s off the grid, he leaves no trace
He keeps his cash in an old suitcase

He doesn’t appear on anyone’s list
A case could be made that he doesn’t exist
He’s not showing up in the database
Man out of time man out of place

**chorus

People may judge this existence of his
He’s perfectly happy the way that it is
Still you figure the Feds must be building a case
Against a man out of time, a man out of place

**chorus
