[Verse 1: Roger Daltrey] Ever since I was a young boy, I've played the silver ball From Soho down to Brighton, I must've played 'em all But I ain't seen nothing like him in any amusement hall That deaf, dumb, and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball [Verse 2: Roger Daltrey] 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 [Chorus 1: Pete Townshend & Roger Daltrey] He's a pinball wizard, there has to be a twist A pinball wizard's got such a supple wrist [Post-Chorus: Pete Townshend & Roger Daltrey] How do you think he does it? I don't know! What makes him so good? [Verse 3: Roger Daltrey] Ain't got no distractions, can't hear no buzzes and bells Don't see, no lights a-flashing, plays by sense of smell Always gets the replay, never seen him fall That deaf, dumb, and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball [Chorus 2: Roger Daltrey & Pete Townshend] I thought I was the Bally table king But I just handed my pinball crown to him [Verse 4: Roger Daltrey] Even on my favourite table, he can beat my best His disciples lead him in, and he just does the rest He's got crazy flipper fingers, never seen him fall That deaf, dumb, and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball
