Blinded by the light 

Revved up like a deuce

Another runner in the night

Blinded by the light

Madman drummer 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

Feeling kinda older

I tripped a merry-go-round

With this very unpleasing

Sneezing and wheezing

The calliope crashed to the ground

The calliope 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

Some silicone sister

With her 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 checking out the weather chart

To see if it was safe outside

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

'Cause 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 tight

She's gonna make it to 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

[Solo]

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

A preacher from the east

Says, "Dethrone the Dictaphone

Hit it in its 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 messing 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 in the night

Blinded by the light

Revved up like a deuce

Another runner in the night

(Madman drummers bummers and Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat

In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat)

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

(With a boulder on my shoulder feelin' kinda older I tripped the merry-go-round

With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing the calliope crashed to the ground)

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

(And now Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand

And some bloodshot forget-me-not whispers daddy's within earshot save the buckshot turn up the band.)

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

(Some silicone sister with her manager mister told me I got what it takes

She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong)

She got down but she never got tired

She's gonna make it through the nigh
