Pinball Wizard (Interlude)

People don't pay to see Reginald Dwight

They pay to see Elton John!

Ever since I was a young boy, I played the silver ball

From Soho down to Brighton, I must've played them 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'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 stands like a statue, becomes part of the machine

Feeling all the bumpers, always playing 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, he scores a trillion more

A pinball wizard, the world's new pinball lord

He's scoring more, he's scoring more
