Pinball Wizard [Royal Albert Hall]

[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 nothin' 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

Feelin' all the bumpers, always playin' clean

Plays by intuition, the digit counters fall

That deaf, dumb, and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball

[Chorus 1: Pete Townshend and 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 and 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-flashin', 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 and 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 favorite table, he can beat my best

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
