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
ย
He stands like a statue
Becomes part of the machine
Feeling all the bumpers
Always playing clean
He plays by intuition
The ditch counters fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
He's a pinball wizard
Has to be a twiztid
A pinball wizard
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 no buzzers and bells
Don't see no lights a-flashing
He plays by sense and smell
He always gets a replay
Never tilts at all
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
ย
I thought I was the Bally table king
But I just handed my pinball crown to him
ย
You know my favourite table
He can beat my best
You just have to feed him
And he just does the rest
He's got crazy flippers
Never seen it fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
