Second Wind Lyrics - Todd Rundgren

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

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

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 

Photos 

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
