(Pete Townshend) [TOMMY (1914-1984), Various Artists, 1972]
Ever since I was a young boy, I played the silver ball; From Soho down to Brighton I must have played `em all. But I ain`t seen nothin` like him In any amusement hall That deaf, dumb an` blind kid Sure plays a mean pinball.
He stands like a statue, Becomes part of the machine. Feelin` all the bumpers Always playin` clean. Plays by intuition, the digit counters fall. That deaf, dumb an` blind kid Sure plays a mean pinball!
He`s a pinball wizard There 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? Ain`t got no distractions, Can`t hear those buzzes and bells, don`t see lights aflashin` plays by sense of smell. Always gets a replay, Never tilts at all That deaf, dumb an` blind kid Sure plays a mean pinball.
Even my usual 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.
