Blinded by the Light Songtext
von Allan Clarke

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
With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin′ kind of older I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing the calliope crashed to the ground

And he was blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
Yeah blinded by the light
Oh, he got down but he never got tight, he's gonna make it alright

Some all-high half-shot was headin′ for the hot spot snappin' his fingers clappin' his hands
And some fleshpot mascot was tied into a lover′s knot with a whatnot in her hand
And now young 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"

And she was blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
Yeah blinded by the light
Oh, she got down but she never got tight, she's gonna make it alright


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 if you'll play that song with the funky break"
Then Go-cart Mozart was checkin′ out the weather chart to see if it was safe to go outside
And little Early-Pearly came by in her curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride

And she was blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
Yeah blinded by the light
Oh, she got down but she never got tight, she's gonna make it alright

I was blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
Yeah blinded by the light
Oh, I got down but I never got tight, I′m gonna make it

Blinded, blinded
I was blinded by the light
Yeah blinded, so blinded
I was blinded by the light
Oh blinded, yeah blinded
I was blinded by the light
So blinded, Ah blinded
I was blinded by the light
