Pinball Wizard
Ever since I was a young boyI've played the silver ballFrom Soho down to BrightonI must have played them all
But I ain't seen nothing like himIn any amusement hallThat deaf, dumb and blind kidSure plays a mean pinball
He stands like a statueBecomes part of the machineFeeling all the bumpersAlways playing clean
Plays by intuitionThe digit counters fallThat deaf, dumb and blind kidSure plays a mean pinball
He's a pinball wizardThere has to be a twistA pinball wizard'sGot such a supple wrist
How do you think he does it?I don't knowWhat makes him so good?
Ain't got no distractionsCan't hear no buzzers and bellsDon't see no lights a flashingPlays by sense of smell
Always gets a replayNever seen him fallThat deaf, dumb and blind kidSure plays a mean pinball
I thought I was the Bally Table kingBut I just handed my pinball crown to him
Even on my favorite tableHe can beat my bestHis disciples lead him inAnd he just does the rest
He's got crazy flipper fingersNever seen him fallThat deaf, dumb and blind kindSure plays a mean pinball
