The Who - 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 wizard, there has to be a twist
A pinball wizard's 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-flashin', plays by sense of smell
Always gets a replay, never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
I thought I was The Bally table king
But I just handed My pinball crown to him
Even on my favorite table
He can beat my best
His disciples lead him in
And he just does the rest
He's got crazy flipper fingers
Never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
