Pinball Wizard Lyrics

Ever since I was a young boy
I've played the silver ball
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them allI ain't seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinballStands like a statue
Becomes part of the machine
Feeling all the bumpers
Always playing cleanPlays by intuition
The digit counters fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinballHe's a pinball wizard
There has to be a twist
A pinball wizard
Got such a supple wristHow 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
See no lights a-flashin'
Plays by sense of smellAlways gets a replay
Never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinballThought I was
The Bally table king
But I just handed
My pinball crown to himAt my favorite table
He can beat my best
Doubles lead him in
He just does the restHe's got crazy flipping fingers
I've never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
