[Chorus] Blinded by the light
      Wrapped up like a deuce
      Another runner in the night
      Blinded by the light
      Wrapped up like a deuce
      Another runner in the night

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
With this very unpleasing
Sneezing and wheezing
The calliope crashed to the ground.

[chorus]

Some silicone sister
With her manager mister
Told me I've got what it takes
She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong
Play the song with the funky break
And go-cart Mozart
Was checking out the weather chart
To see if it was safe outside
And little Early Pearly
Came by in her curly-wurly
And asked me if I needed a ride.

[chorus]

[bridge] She got down but she never got tight
      She's gonna make it to the night
      She's gonna make it through the night

      Momma always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
      But momma that's where the fun is
 

Some brimstone baritone
Anticyclone rolling stone
Preacher from the east
Says dethrone the dictaphone
Hit it in the funnybone
That's where they expect it least
And some new mown chaperone
Was standing the corner
Watching the young girls dance
And some fresh-sewn moonstone
Was playing with his frozen zone
Reminding him of romance

[bridge] And the calliope crashed to the ground

[chorus]

[chorus and first verse]

Now Scott with the sling-shot
Finally found a tender spot
And throws his lover in the sand
And some bloodshot forget-me-not
Said daddy's within ear shot
Save the buckshot
Turn up the band

[repeat verse 2, "Some silicon sister . . . "]
