    Madman drummer 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 a merry-go-round

    With the very unpleasing

    Sneezing and wheezing

    The calliope crashed to the ground

    CHORUS

    Blinded by the light

    Wrapped up like a deuce

    Another runner in the night

    Blinded by the light

    She got down but she never got tight

    She's gonna make it through the night

    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-kart 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

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

    'Cause mama, 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 in the corner

    Watching the young girls dance

    And some fresh-sown moonstone

    Was playing with his frozen zone

    Reminding him of romance

    The calliope crashed to the ground
