This song is from the 1974 "War Babies" album written by Daryl Hall. In my opinion, this was one of those albums that Daryl Hall and John Oates stepped completely outside the box. They brought in a musician that played over 40 instruments and was a magician at production. His name was Todd Rundgren. Just listen to Rundgren's guitar work and backup vocals! To me, this song is the "gem" from this outstanding, obscure album. Enjoy!! In bed sittin' and reading by the TV light Stay away from the window, thunder and lighting And the rain, the rain keeps fallin' down That's something that hasn't changed Yeah, there's something inside me, it's quiet when it rains At the end of the rainbow, there ain't no pot of gold And the light in the morning, hardly ever shows Ain't no easy living, everybody knows And it's all around us........ 70's Scenario She called me a prisoner, in a prison of the mass She said acceptance from the future, is freedom from the past and I laugh, and say "that's alright" Things really ain't that tough As long as I'm still able, to turn the TV off At the end of the rainbow, there ain't no pot of gold And the light in the morning, hardly ever shows Ain't no reason living, everybody knows And it's all around us........ 70's Scenario At the end of the rainbow, there ain't no pot of gold And the light in the morning, hardly ever shows Ain't no reason living, everybody knows And it's all around us........ 70's Scenario
