Pinball Wizard

Ever since I was a young boy I've played the silver ball

From Soho down to Brighton

I must have played them all

But I ain't seen nothing like him in any amusement hall

That deaf

Dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball



He stands like a statue

Becomes part of the machine

Feeling all the bumpers

Always playing clean

He plays by intuition

The digit counters fall

That deaf

Dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball



He's a pinball wizzard

There has to be a twist

A pinball wizard

Got such a supple wrist



How do you think he does it

I don't know

What makes him so good



Ain't got no distractions

Can't hear no buzzers and bells

Don't see no lights a flashing

He plays by sense of smell

Always gets a replay

Never seen him fall

That deaf

Dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball



Thought I was the Bally table king

But I just handed my pinball crown to him



Even at my favourite table he can beat my best

His disciples lead him in

He just does the rest

He's got crazy flipping fingers

I've never seen him fall

That deaf

Dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball
