Lyrics

Blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night Blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night Blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce, Another runner... Madman drummers, bummers Indians in the summer with a Teenage diplomat In the dumps with the mumps As the adolescent pumps His way into his hat With a boulder on my shoulder Feelin kinda older, I tripped the merry-go-round With this very unpleasin' Sneasin' and wheesin' The calliopie crashed to the ground The calliopie crashed to the ground But she was Blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night Blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night Blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night Blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce... Some silicone sister With a manager mister Told me I got what it takes She said ''I'll turn you on sonny To something strong, Play the song with the funky break'' And go-kart Mozart Was checkin' out the weather chart Seein' if it was safe out side And little early-pearly Came by in his curly-wurly And asked me if I needed a ride Asked me if I needed a ride But she was Blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night Blinded by the light She got down, but she never got tired She's gonna make it through the night She's gonna make it through the night But mama That's where the fun is But mama That's where the fun is Mama always told me Not to look into the Eyes of the sun But mama, That's where the fun is Some brimstone baritone Anticyclone rolling stone Preacher from the east Says ''dethrone the Dictaphone, Hit it in it's funny bone That's where they expect it least'' And some new-mown Chaperone Was standing in the corner Watching the young girls dance And some fresh-sown moonstone Was messin' with his frozen zone Remindin' him of romance The callalopie crashed to the ground But she was Blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night Blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night Madman, drummers bummers (Blinded by the light) Indians in the summer with a Teenage diplomat (Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night) In the dumps with the mumps (Blinded by the light) As the adolescent pumps His way into his hat (Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night) With a boulder on my shoulder (Blinded by the light) Feelin kinda older, I tripped the merry-go-round (Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night) With this very unpleasin' (Blinded by the light) Sneasin' and wheesin' The calliopie crashed to the ground (Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night) Now Scott with a slingshot (Blinded by the light) Finally found a tender spot And throws his lover in the sand (Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night) And some bloodshot forget-me-not (Blinded by the light) Said ''daddy's within earshot, Save the buckshot - turn up the band'' (Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night) Some silicone sister (Blinded by the light) With a manager mister Told me I got what it takes (Revved up like a deuce, Another runner in the night) She said ''I'll turn you on sonny (Blinded by the light) To something strong'' She got down, but she never got tired She's gonna make it through the night
