Artist: Elton John Album: Greatest Hits 1970-2002 (2002) Title: Pinball Wizard
Lyrics Pinball WizardEver 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 and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball
He stands like a statue, becomes part of the machine Feelin' all the bumpers, always playin' clean He plays by intuition, the digit counters fall That deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball
He's a pinball wizard, there has to be a twist A pinball wizard's got such a supple wrist How do you think he does it? - I don't know What makes him so good?
He ain't got no distractions, can't hear no buzzes or bells Don't see no lights a-flashin', he plays by sense of smell Always have a replay, and never talks at all That deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball
He can't beat me now, I've always been the champ I know every trick, no freek's gonna beat my
Even on my favourite table, he can beat the best His disciples lead him in and he just does the rest He's got crazy flipper fingers, I've never seen him fall That deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball.
He's a pinball wizard, there has to be a twist A pinball wizard's got such a supple wrist
He's a pinball wizard, he scores even more He's scoring more, he's scoring more
I thought I was the bally table king But I just handed my pinball crown to him To him, to him |
