how d`you think he does it
  6    6   -5  4   4
what makes him so good

he aint got no distraction can`t hear
those buzzers and bells
don`t see lights a flashin`
plays by sense of smell
he plays by intuition the digit counters fall
that deaf dumb and blind kid
sure plays a mean pinball.

even on 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.
