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
