Todd Rundgren Second Wind Lyrics

Old rocking chair
  It beckons you like a junkie's needle
  Start thinking feeble
  Cowardly lion
  The special today is karma yoga
  Glued to the sofa
  Where was I when we lost power?
  Where was I when lies were spoken?
  Where was I when evil snuck in?
  Where was I when hope was choking?
  A spy in the house
  Someday one of the kids may catch us cussing
  Then turn us in
  Family ties
  They used to be colors in a rainbow
  Now we fly solo
  Give me back the passion flower
  Give me back the nonconsumer
  Give me back my lack of reason
  Give me back my sense of humor
  Blow like cyclone my second wind
  Blow like typhoon my second wind
  Blow like tempest my second wind
  Blind by design
  I've gotten the hang of not resisting
  Who cares who's listening
  Popular press
  And we've got the video and the movies
  Let's feed the zombies
  Now that I know what to fight for
  Now that I need more adventure
  Now that I have thoughtful patience
  Now that I can see the future
  Put your hours in and take your pay
  Like there wasn't any other way
  Then I heard a voice inside me say
  It was twenty years ago today
  When did I get so tired?
  Did I wake up half-sleeping?
  I can't life slip away
  To a world with no meaning
