Bilingual
Since I was a young boy
I've played the silver ball
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played 'em all
But I usually never knock him
In any amusement hall
That deaf, dumb, blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
ย
He stands like a statue
No spot on the machine
Feeling all the bumpers
Always playing clean
Plays by intuition
And does he count us all
That deaf, dumb, blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
He's a pinball wizard
Has to be a twist
Pinball wizard
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 bells and whistles
Don't see no lights a-flashing
Plays by sense of smell
Always gets a replay
I've never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb, blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
ย
Thought I was the bloody table king
But I just handed my pinball crown to him
He's not my favourite table
He can't beat my best
He just shuffles me 'em in
And he just does the rest
He's got crazy flutter fingers
I've never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb, blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
