Blind Lyrics


"I'm not a scientist," everybody likes to brag these days
And yet they still insist, twisting all the facts their way
Gravity is real -- just step off a ledge and you will fall
Summers get hotter, winters get colder - writing on the wall
You'd have to be blind, blind, eyes that will not see
You'd have to be blind, blind, blind, eyes that will not see, no-oh
You say God'll handle everything -- Seems like He ain't done shit so far, no, no
Take yourself for example:You're still wishing on a star (Wish upon that sun)
But you see, God is a scientist -- He don't play dice with the universe (It don't take an Einstein)
If you fake a cynical solution, it's as if you're trying to make things worse
If you know the reason ('cause you never want to see that)
Writing on the wall (don't want to see that)
Writing on the wall (turn your back to the wall)
Writing on the wall (hide your eyes now)
Writing on the wall (there it is)
Writing on the wall (plain as day)
Writing on the wall (don't look away)
Writing on the wall (got to face the truth)

Writing on the wall (wake up!)
(sax solo)
You'd have to be blind, blind, blind, blind, blind, eyes that will not see
You'd have to be blind, blind, blind, blind, eyes that will not see
Writing's on the wall (blind, blind, blind) - repeat
Never see it coming...
Writing's on the wall (repeat)

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Todd Rundgren is an American singer, songwriter, and producer who started in the 60s with the psychedelic band Nazz in Philadelphia. His solo career started out successfully with such hits as I Saw The Light and Hello It's Me (which was a reworked Nazz tune). He formed a band called Utopia (or Todd Rundgren's Utopia) which concentrated on eccentric progressive epics, while also continuing to release solo albums. His production work started early, with work for Sparks and the New York Dolls, and continued with Meat Loaf, XTC, The Psychedelic Furs, and many others.

Todd Rundgren is well known among his fans as being an electronic music revolutionary. His production techniques, and his belief that he has ability to play just about any instrument at a mastery level, allowed him to release some of the most honest and personal music of his time. Many of his solo albums, including Something/Anything were made completely by himself. That is, he played all the instruments, sang all the vocals, did all of the recording, editing, mixing, and mastering, and even distributed the album through his own record label, Bearsville. In the particular case of Something/Anything, there was actually one side (side 4) which featured songs performed by a studio band, placed on the album to show Todd's ability in working with musicians.

For over thirty years now, Todd Rundgren has had a very successful musical career. He recently fronted, recorded and toured with the band The New Cars, which featured two of his own band members, and two of the remaining The Cars members. In addition, he released a solo album in 2004 entitled Liars, which featured the recurring theme of deceit and broken promises. He toured with a strong band for this album, which included his long-time bassist Kasim Sulton, and former The Tubes drummer, Prarie Prince.

On September 29th, 2008 Rundgren released his 20th studio album "Arena" via Cooking Vinyl Records in the UK (Hi-Fi Recordings in the USA), to critical acclaim.

2011 found him covering Robert Johnsons songs on stage as well as on a CD called "Todd Rundgren's Johnson"
