    Thanks Fly, but I already knew that, you “deuce”-bag. It’s a hot-rod reference.

    I kinda like “Demolition Man” better, but I really dug the Grace Jones version (and video) for that song even better than MMEB’s version …

    I always thought it was wrapped up like a douche too.

    Especially when Bruce Commiesteen sang it, since that guy is totally “wrapped up like a douche.”

    One must admit, old Manfred was one bad Hasidim.

    I shed a tear the day he hung up his guitar to go back to the family diamond business on West 47th.

    Hope he got a haircut and shaved b4 pushing the ice.
    Ending all confusion:

    Blinded by the light,
    revved up like a deuce,
    another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light,
    revved up like a deuce,
    another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light,
    revved 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, feelin’ kinda older,
    I tripped the merry-go-round
    With this very unpleasin’, sneezin’ and wheezin,
    the calliope crashed to the ground
    The calliope crashed to the ground
    But she was…
    Blinded by the light,
    revved up like a deuce,
    runner in the night

    Some silicone sister with a manager mister told me I go 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 checkin’ out the weather chart to see if it was safe outside
    And little Early-Pearly came by in his curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride
    Asked me if I needed a ride
    But she was…
    Blinded by the light,
    revved up like a deuce,
    another runner in the night
    Blinded by the light
    She got down but she never got tired
    She’s gonna make it through the night
    She’s gonna make it through the night
    But mama, that’s where the fun is
    But mama, that’s where the fun is
    Mama always told me not to look into the eye’s of the sun
    But mama, that’s where the fun is
    Some brimstone baritone anticyclone rolling stone preacher from the east
    Says, “Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in it’s funny bone,
    that’s where they expect it least”
    And some new-mown chaperone was standin’ in the corner,
    watching the young girls dance
    And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin’ with his frozen zone, reminding him of romance
    The calliope crashed to the ground
    But she was…

    Now Scott with a slingshot finially found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand
    And some bloodshot forget-me-not said daddy’s within earshot save the buckshot, turn up the band
    Some silicone sister with a manager mister told me I go what it takes
    She said “I’ll turn you on sonny to something strong”

    Wow that was a doozy of deuce lyrics. Must have taken the better part of the 70’s to write that. Think they said all they wanted to say? Bet that was the short version.
