Blinded By The Light - 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
