Blinded by the Light

[Intro] 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 [Verse 1] 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', sneezin' and wheezin' The calliope crashed to the ground [Pre-Chorus] The calliope crashed to the ground! [Chorus] 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, another runner in the night [Verse 2] Some silicone sister with a manager mister Told me I got what it takes She said, "I'll turn you on, son, into something 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 [Pre-Chorus] Asked me if I needed a ride! [Chorus] But, she was blinded by the light Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night Blinded by the light [Breakdown] She got down, but she never got tired She's gonna make it through the night She's gonna make it through the night [Instrumental Break 02:54-04:09] [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] 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 [Piano Solo] [Verse 3] 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, reminding him of romance [Pre-Chorus] The calliope crashed to the ground!
