Rush "Second Nature" Songtext

Second Nature

A memo to a higher officeOpen letter to the powers that beTo a god, a king, a head of stateA captain of industryTo the movers and the shakersCan't everybody see?

It ought to be second natureI mean, the places where we liveLet's talk about this sensiblyWe're not insensitiveI know progress has no patienceBut something's got to give

I know you're differentYou know I'm the sameWe're both too busyTo be taking the blameI'd like some changesBut you don't have the timeWe can't go on thinkingIt's a victimless crimeNo one is blamelessBut we're all without shameWe fight the fireWhile we're feeding the flames

Folks have got to make choicesAnd choices got to have voicesFolks are basically decentConventional wisdom would sayWell, we read about the exceptionsIn the papers every day

It ought to be second natureAt least, that's what I feel"Now I lay me down in Dreamland"I know perfect's not for realBut we might get closerBut I'm ready to make a deal

Today is different and tomorrow the sameIt's hard to take the world the way that it cameToo many rapids keep us sweeping alongToo many captains keep on steering us wrongIt's hard to take the heatIt's hard to lay blameTo fight the fireWhile we're feeding the flames

It ought to be second natureAt least, that's what I feel"Now I lay me down in Dreamland"I know perfect's not for realI thought we might get closer ...
