lyrics

He was so sure and I was less
When we was more, I would guess
that I was wrong
I didn't trust myself
so I gave my strength to someone else
for too long

It went on too long
Went on and on and on
It went wrong too long
Went on two times too long

I've got to clear him out, though he's gone
I feel him everywhere
I find
I need to burn herb, to smoke him out
I've got to clear this air
It's high time

High time, my time
High time to wave goodbye
This time, my time
This time I know what's mine
Went on too long
and now I know
if he's still hanging around here
how to make him go

Smoke him out, smoke him out of me
Smoke him out, smoke him out of me

Smoke him out of me, smoke him out
He's not the one that I'm having hanging about
Smoke him out of me, smoke him out
He's not the one that I'm going to worry about

Bring me the bunch of sage
I need the sage to cleanse
Bring me the bunch of sage
Or bring me frankincense
I need to breathe the herb
Breathe the smoke and hold it in
I need a real refurb
That's how I'm getting rid of him
I need to breathe the smoke
Roll it, hold it, smoke it right
I need to take a toke
Does anybody have a light?
I need to smoke him out
Roll it, hold it, smoke him right out of here
I need to smoke him out
I'm over letting him hang around here

Smoke him out, smoke him out
Smoke him out, smoke him out of me

Smoke him out of me, smoke him out
He's not the one that I'm having hanging about
Smoke him out of me, smoke him out
He's not the one that I'm going to worry about
