Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner inthe night

Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner inthe night

Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner inthe night

Madman drummers bummers, Indians in the summer with a teenagediplomat

In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way intohis hat

With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin' kinda older, I tripped themerry-go-round

With this very unpleasin', sneezin' and wheezin, the calliopecrashed to the ground

The calliope crashed to the ground

But she was...

Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner inthe night

Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner inthe night

Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner inthe night

Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner inthe night

Some silicone sister with a manager mister told me I go what ittakes

She said "I'll turn you on sonny to something strong, play thesong with the funky break"

And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to see ifit was safe outside

And little Early-Pearly came by in his curly-wurly and asked meif 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 inthe 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

------ guitar solo ------

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 eye's of the sun

But mama, that's where the fun is

Some brimstone baritone anticyclone rolling stone preacher fromthe east

Says, "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in it's funny bone, that'swhere they expect it least"

And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner, watchingthe young girls dance

And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone,reminding him of romance

The calliope crashed to the ground

But she was...

Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner inthe night

Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another runner inthe night
