[Verse 1]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 2]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 3]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 4]
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, feeling kinda older
I tripped the merry-go-round
[Verse 5]
With this very unpleasin', sneezin' and wheezin'
The calliope crashed to the ground
The calliope crashed to the ground
[Verse 6]
But she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 7]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 8]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 9]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 10]
Some silicone sister with a manager mister, told me I got what it takes
She said, "I'll turn you on, sonny, to somethin' strong, play the song with the funky break"
And go-kart Mozart was checkin' 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
[Verse 11]
And she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
[Verse 12]
She got down, but she never got tired
She's gonna make it to the night
She's gonna make it through the night
[Verse 13]
'Cause, mama, that's where the fun is
[Verse 14]
Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
But Mama, that's where the fun is
[Verse 15]
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 standin' in the corner, watchin' the young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone, remind him of romance
[Verse 16]
The calliope crashed to the ground
[Verse 17]
But she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 18]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 19]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 20]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 21]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 22]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 23]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 24]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 25]
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night
[Verse 26]
Blinded by the light
[Verse 27]
She got down, but she never got tired
She's gonna make it through the night
