one of the most commonly misinterpreted rock lyrics in the last century. the actual lyric is "revved up like a duece, another runner in the night", but it really sounds like "wrapped up like a douche", the song is "Blinded by the Light" by Bruce Springsteen.
the lyric is also commonly mistaken as:

as mentioned previously, it is one of the most commonly mishear lyrics. However, the song which this is misheard in is Mansfred Mann's version. It sounds exactly like douche even when you learn that it is deuce though. Bruce Springsteen originally wrote the song as "cut loose like a deuce..." and sang it saying deuce not douche.
"Turn it up, I like to hear Mansfred Mann pronounce deuce like shit"
"I'm gonna sing douche because it is funnier and I was almost raised on it"

One who is ridiculously preoccupied with trivial matters and therefore cannot be bothered with meaningful information from other, less douchey people.
"I tried to get her attention about the house being on fire, but she's wrapped up like a douche watching The O.C."
