Ever since I was a young boy
|
I played the silver ball
|
from Soho down to Brighton
|
I must have played them all
|
But I ain't seen anyone like him
|
In any amusement hall
|
that deaf dumb and blind kid
|
sure pays a mean pin ball
|
|
He stands like a statue
|
becomes part of the machine
|
feeling all the bumpers
|
always playing clean
|
he plays by intuition
|
never seen him fall
|
that deaf dumb and blind kid
|
sure plays a mean pin ball
|
|
he's a pin ball wizard
|
there has to be a twist
|
the pin ball wizard
|
has gor a supple wrist
|
|
How do you think he does it ?
|
I don't know
|
What makes him so good?
|
|
He ain't got no distraction
|
he can't hear the buzz and bells
|
he don't see lights a flashing
|
he plays by sense of smell
|
always gets the replay
|
the digit counter falls
|
that deaf dumb and blind kid
|
sure plays a mean pin ball
|
|
he's a pin ball wizard
|
there has to be a twist
|
the pin ball wizard
|
has got a supple wrist
|
