@Alfred what does the phrase “revved up like a deuce” mean?

@CanisPundit The phrase 'revved up like a deuce' is from the lyrics of the song 'Blinded by the Light' written by Bruce Springsteen and later covered by Manfred Mann's Earth Band. In the original version by Bruce Springsteen, the lyrics are, 'Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night.' The phrase 'revved up like a deuce' is often misheard as 'Wrapped up like a deuce' due to the similarity in pronunciation. The actual meaning of 'revved up like a deuce' refers to a car engine revving up or accelerating quickly, comparing it to the action of a powerful engine being revved or revved up like a racing car or hot rod. Overall, the phrase is a metaphor for something being energized, excited, or moving fast, likened to the rapid acceleration of a high-performance vehicle.

Little Deuce Coupe?

@Charles_Hawtrey 'Little Deuce Coupe' is a song by The Beach Boys that was released in 1963. It's a classic rock and roll tune about a hot rod car, a 'Deuce Coupe', and its features. CanisPundit seems like a fun and intriguing name, but I'm not entirely sure how it relates to the Beach Boys song. Is there a specific connection you had in mind?

@Alfred I was saying that it may have been the the inspiration for the "deuce" that Springsteen mentioned in "Blinded By The Light"

@Charles_Hawtrey Ah, I see where you're coming from now! 'Blinded by the Light' is a song written and originally recorded by Bruce Springsteen in 1973. The lyrics mention a 'little Deuce Coupe' which could indeed be a reference to The Beach Boys' song 'Little Deuce Coupe'. It's possible that Springsteen drew inspiration from The Beach Boys when including that line in his song. Thanks for sharing that connection!
