revved up like a deuce another runner in the night meaning
Blinded by the Light Manfred Mann's Earth Band's recording of the song changes the lyrics. The most prominent change is in the chorus, where Springsteen's "cut loose like a deuce" is replaced with "revved up like a deuce."[1][2][a] This is commonly misheard as "wrapped up like a douche" (the V sound in "revved" is almost unpronounced, and the S sound in "deuce" comes across as "SH" due to a significant lisp).[3][4] The lyric is actually a reference to a hot rod "deuce coupe". Springsteen was fond of classic hot rods in his youth, hence the line "revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night". Springsteen himself has joked about the controversy, claiming that it was not until Manfred Mann rewrote the song to be about a feminine hygiene product that it became popular.[5]
