recorded by Leo Kottke on:

1975 "Chewing Pine" (Capitol)

1978 "Leo Kottke The Best" (Capitol)

Climbing out of open windows,

Crashing down from broken stairs,

Keeping watch on smoking cinders,Kottke Leo - Power Failure - http://motolyrics.com/kottke-leo/power-failure-lyrics.html

Falling over burning chairs.

Tossed and crossed, and screwed in transit.

Broken, splintered, bruised and thrown.

Badly shattered, gale forced frighty,

Rushed across and shown alone.

Speech reduced by poor relations

strung from weeks of self-abused,

chopped up, churned out, weeks of greazy

Spark plugs burnt up power's fused
