Songwriters Townshend, Peter
Ever since I was a young boy
Ive played the Silver Ball
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them all
But I aint 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
Hes a pinball wizard
There has to be a twist
A pinball wizards
Got such a supple wrist
How do you think he does it?
I dont know
What makes him so good?
Aint got no distractions
Cant hear no buzzers and bells
Dont see no lights a-flashing
Plays by sense of smell
Always gets a replay
Never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
Hes a pinball wizard
There has to be a twist
A pinball wizards
Got such a supple wrist
Even on my favorite table
He can beat my best
His disciples lead him in
And he just does the rest
Hes got crazy flipper fingers
Never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball
