Question:

What are the lyrics to the unintelligible part of "Blinded by the light"?

specifically, when he says "shot up like a (???) into the (????) night"


Answers:

Springsteen's original 1973 version goes: "Cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night." The 1976 Manfred Mann says "douche." Bruce addressed this during his 2005 Storytellers concert on VH1:

"The original lyric is 'cut loose like a deuce" referring to a two seat hot-rod, a little deuce coupe. Manfred Mann changed the lyric to 'revved up like a douche', which is a feminine hygienic procedure....so, they're different"

Oddly enough, Manfred Mann's version is the only song Bruce ever wrote that went to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100
