Vandaag begint mijn dag met dit heerlukke live nummer. En voor diegene die net als mij de tekst altijd volledig verkeerd meezingt plaats ik ook de tekst erbij.

Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light

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 this very unpleasing
Sneezing and wheezing
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

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
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 his curly-wurly
And asked me if I needed a ride
Asked me if I needed a ride

'Cause 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 tight
She's gonna make it to 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

[Solo]

Mama always told me not to look into the eyes 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 its funny bone
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 messing 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

(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)

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

(With a boulder on my shoulder feelin' kinda older I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing the calliope crashed to the ground)

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

(And now 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.)

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 her manager mister told me I got what it takes
She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong)

She got down but she never got tired
She's gonna make it through the night

Vergeet nooit te lachen want niet alleen het gevoel is zo lekker maar je gezicht gaat er ook beter van uitzien. 

En dan krijg je ineens onderstaande mail binnen. Supertrots ga ik dat speldje zaterdag op de nieuwjaarsreceptie in ontvangst nemen.

En uiteraard moest er gespeecht worden maar daar ik beter ben in schrijven hield ik het heel erg kort.

Harry Vermegen heeft altijd een hele sterke eigen mening over verschillende standpunten die er spelen in de wereld. Ben je het met Harry eens of oneens?

Ben bezig om een boek over mijn leven te schrijven met als titel

VAN TRAAN NAAR LACH

Je kunt het online lezen door op bovenstaande foto te klikken. Waarom online en niet een geschreven boek zul je je afvragen. Dat komt omdat ik het heb opgeleukt met muziek. Want muziek beheerst een heel groot deel van mijn leven. Mocht je het gaan lezen en volgen, want het is nog lang niet af, dan wens ik je veel lees en luisterplezier.
