Rod Stewart - Pinball Wizard Lyrics
(pete townshend)[tommy (1914-1984), various artists, 1972]Ever since I was a young boy,I played the silver ball;From soho down to brightonI must have played em all.But I aint seen nothin like himIn any amusement hallThat deaf, dumb an blind kidSure plays a mean pinball.He stands like a statue,Becomes part of the machine.Feelin all the bumpersAlways playin clean.Plays by intuition,The digit counters fall.That deaf, dumb an blind kidSure plays a mean pinball!Hes a pinball wizardThere has to be a twist,A pinball wizard,Got such a supple wrist.How do you think he does it?What makes him so good?Aint got no distractions,Cant hear those buzzes and bells,Dont see lights aflashinPlays by sense of smell.Always gets a replay,Never tilts at allThat deaf, dumb an blind kidSure plays a mean pinball.Even my usual table,He can beat my best,His disciples lead him inAnd he just does the rest.Hes got crazy flipper fingers,Never seen him fall.That deaf, dumb and blind kidSure plays a mean pinball.
