Blinded By The Light (live) Lyrics - Singles - Bruce Springsteen & The Sessions Band

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' kinda older, I tripped the merry-go-round 

With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing, the calliope crashed to the ground 

Some all-hot 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 

Oh cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night 

Blinded by the light 

She got down but she never got tight, but she'll make it alright 

Some brimstone baritone anti-cyclone rolling stone preacher from the East 

He says, dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in its funny bone, that's where they expect it least 

And some new-mown chaperone was standin' in the corner all alone, watchin' the young girls dance 

And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone to remind him of the feeling of romance 

Yeah, he was blinded by the light 

Oh, cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night 

Blinded by the light 

He got down but he never got tight, but he's gonna make it tonight 

Some silicone sister with her manager's mister told me I got what it takes 

She said, I'll turn you on, sonny, to something strong if you play that song with the funky break 

And 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 

Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on beer, playin' backyard bombardier 

Yes, and Scotland Yard was trying hard, they sent some dude with a calling card, he said, do what you like, but don't do it here 

Well, I jumped up, turned around, spit in the air, fell on the ground and asked him which was the way back home 

He said, take a right at the light, keep goin' straight until night, and then, boy, you're on your own 

And now in Zanzibar, a shootin' star was ridin' in a side car, hummin' a lunar tune 

Yes, and the avatar said, blow the bar but first remove the cookie jar, we're gonna teach those boys to laugh too soon 

And some kidnapped handicap was complainin' that he caught the clap from some mousetrap he bought last night 

Well, I unsnapped his skull cap and between his ears I saw a gap but figured he'd be all right 

He was just blinded by the light 

Cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night 

Blinded by the light 

Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the sun 

Oh, but Mama, that's where the fun is 

Ooh yeah 

I was blinded 

I was blinded 

I was blinded 

I was blinded 

I was blinded 

I was blinded 

I was blinded 

I was blinded
