Pinball wizard
by The Who

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.
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 pin ball 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!
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.
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 pin ball 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.

That deaf, dumb and blind kid
