Subject: Silicone Sister

Written By: Angel (Guest) on 11/06/02 at 08:58 p.m.

I am a fan of Manford Man.  I wanted to know where I can find the complete lyrics to Blinded By The Light and also, in the song the guy sings about a sillicone sister with a manangmister.  WHat is that and toward the end, there are backup vocals singing,"some blind shot forget me nots and daddies with the bug shot turn up the band."  Hope you can help!=) If you are wondering what my username is about, I am a loyal fan of Britney Spears and no matter what, she will always be sweet and innoncent.  When I first became obsessed with her, I heard this song called Lucky.  Britney Spears plays a princess and a movie star.  The princess wears a Medieval pink cotton and silky dress with lace and loads of jewlery. Lucky also has dark blonde hair. The movie star is a blonde image who tells and advises Lucky to stop crying over being single.  The reason Lucky cries at night is because, despite her money, and her fame, and fourtune, Lucky wants true love from a boy.  The end of the song still touches me and if I could walk into the T.V. set or try to walk into a picture of Lucky, I would go in and promise her an infinite friendship.   :'( :-* I can tell Lucky just wants kisses!

Piece of cake

Churus: Blinded by the light revved up like a douche another runner in the night (3X)

Madman's drummers bummers, Indians in the summer, with a female diplomat, in the dumps with the mumps, the adolesent pumps his way into his hat, with a boulder on my shoulder feeling kinda older, I tripped the merry-go-round, wiht my very un-easing sneezing and a-weezing, the coliape crashed to the ground

the coliape crashed to the ground cause she was (churus)

Some silicone sister with a manager mister told me I had what it takes, she says Ill turn ya on sunny to somehting strong, play that song with the funky break, and gocart mozart was checking out the weather charts to see if it was safe outside, while little early birdy came by IN HIS curley wurley and then asked me if I needed a ride

The coliape crashed to the ground cause she was (Churus)


Then its:

She got down, but she never got tired, shes gunna make it, through the night
mama always said to never stare into the sun
but mama thats where the fun is

some anti-cyclone lower-tone Rolling stone lawyer from the east, says dethrone the dicapitone, hit 'em in the funny bone, thats where they'd expect it the least, (Damn, this is what I get for writing a parody to it, this is all I can give you)but the lawyer with her breathing room, found blugged in her living room, a copy-cat was at stake, (something something something) watching the young girls dance, (ok I lost it, but theres something about "Junior" and his slingslot, I dont remember it word for word)

(Now there is a randition of the churus over and over again, while Manfred Mann repeats the first verse and the part of the seccond verse about the silicone sister)

She got down but she never got tired, shes gunna make it, through the night...

Sorry my parody interacted with it...but I know that I got most of it right!

ps, when I capitalized "IN HIS" thats because that lyric is so often confused for "Anus" so it sound like, "Little early birdy gave my ANUS curley wurley"  but the real lyric is infact "In his"

There was a very good explanation of the song at kissthisguy.com, but the site has been down for the longest time (I hope not for good!).  It gave both the Springsteen and the Manfred Mann lyrics for the song.  If the site were still up, I would link you to that.

wow, I can honestly say that this post can win the award for the best case of unrelated topics put together in one post.......I bet Bruce Springsteens happythat a song he wrote has been mentioned in the same paragraph as Britney Spears!...........
anyway...the song is about Run running, so his lyrics are somewhat related to that.........

nah.. StraightDope.com had a much better explanation thank kissThisGuy ever did...


http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a5_148.html

also I spotted some errors in the lyrics posted here.. so here's a better copy that I got from Leo's lyrics, that looks a little better

Blinded by the Light
Manfred Mann's Earth Band
- words and music by Bruce Springsteen
- Manfred Mann's Earth Band version (Warner 8252) was released August 1976
and reached #1 in early 1977. It was in the Billboard Top 40 for 15 weeks.
- lyrics as recorded by Manfred Mann's Earth Band on the 1976 album
"The Roaring Silence" (Warner 3055)

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, 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
Blinded by the light, revved up like a deuce, another 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

------ guitar solo ------

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...
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
