Wrapped Up Like a Douche, Another Roman in the Night?
Blinded by the Light has one of the most commonly misinterpreted rock lyrics in the last century. the actual lyric is "revved up like a duece, another runner in the night", but it really sounds like "wrapped up like a douche". What did YOU think the lyrics were? :bigsmile:

I thought it was loner in the night...I do hear the word "douche" when he sings though.0

I thought the same thing actually. Just like for years I always thought Dan Seals' I'd Really Love To See You Tonight lyrics included 'talkin about the LINEN"instead of the correct 'moving in'.0

Bwahhahah! I like the song but it does sound like he's saying that0
-
I like to say, "Wrapped up like a douche, another boner in the night" LOL!!0

Ever think maybe some artists stretch how they pronounce things on purpose? Always thought Kurt Cobain of Nirvana did that a lot.0

I'm so glad I'm not the only one that thought he said "douche" :laugh:0

I thought who wants to listen to Manford Mann when there is Springsteen.0

I had a friend who thought the lyrics to part of You Oughta Know by Alanis Morissette were:
"Does she speak EBBAQUANISE...?"
instead of "Does she speak ELOQUENTLY...?"0 -
I thought it was "another roller in the night".0

Hey ! I like that song.
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,

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

HAHA I heard revved up like a douches another rumor in the night0 -
and if you are wondering, a "deuce" is a '32 Ford Deuce Coupe. There are also Chevy Deuces (Chevy II) but this song refers to the older Ford.0

I've always heard the word "douche" and I am the world's worst at lyrics.
"Radioactive" by Imagine Dragons. It's the name of the freakin' song. What I do continue to catch myself sing? "I'm ready to rock you, ready to rock y...." aw crap, I did it again.0 -
I thought it was "another roller in the night".

I thought it was 'wrapped up like a deuce, another roller in the night'. I figured it was a Roulette reference or he had 3 of a kind in the hole or something, lol!0

Kurt Cobain sounded like that 'cause he was stoned on Heroin. Not really an "on purpose" thing for him. *shrug*0 -
