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
1E
There's got to be a twist
A pinball wizard
He's got such a supple wrist
How do you think he does it? (I don't know)
What makes him so good?
He ain't got no distractions, can't hear those buzzers and bells
Don't see lights a flashin', plays by sense of smell
Always gets a replay, never tilts at all
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 usual 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
