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 played a mean motherfucking pinball
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 finger, never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb, and blind kid sure played a mean motherfucking pinball
I thought I was the Bally table king
But I just handed my pinball crown to him
There's a man I've found who could bring us all joy
A doctor I've found, can he cure the boy?
Doctor I've found, can he cure the boy?
A man I've found could remove his sorrow
He lives in this town, let's see him tomorrow
Let's see him tomorrow
I often wonder what he is thinking
Has he ever heard a word I've said?
Look at him in the mirror dreaming
What is happening in his head?
Listening to you, I get the music
Gazing at you, I get the heat
Following you, I climb the mountain
I get excitement at your feet
Right behind you, I see the millions
On you, I see the glory
From you, I get opinions
From you, I get the story
Oh, let's go
What is happening in his head?
Ooh-ooh, I wish I knew
I wish I knew
