Pinball Wizard (Live In Swansea 1976)

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball

[Verse 2]
He stands like a statue
Becomes part of the machine
Feeling all the bumpers
Always playing clean
Plays by intuition
The digit counters fall

[Chorus]
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball

[Post-Chorus]
He's a pinball wizard
There has to be a twist
A pinball wizard's
Got such a supple wrist

[Bridge]
How do you think he does it?
I don't know
What makes him so good?

[Verse 3]
Ain't got no distractions
Can't hear no buzzers and bells
Don't see no lights a flashing
Plays by sense of smell
Always gets a replay
He never [?]

[Chorus]
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean pinball

[Refrain]
I thought I was the Bally Table king
But I just handed my pinball crown to him

[Verse 4]
Even on my favorite 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

[Chorus]
That deaf, dumb and blind kind
Sure plays a mean pinball
