Vocal Adrenaline:
Ahhh, Ahhh, Ahhh
Ahhh, Ahhh, Ahhh
Ahhh, Ahhh, Ahhh
Unique:
Ever since I was a young boy,
I've played the silver ball.
From Soho down to Brighton
I must have played them all.
But I ain't seen nothing like him
In any amusement hall...
That deaf dumb and blind kid
Unique und Vocal Adrenaline:
Sure plays a mean pin ball!
Unique:
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
Unique und Vocal Adrenaline:
Sure plays a mean pin ball!
He's a pin ball wizard
There has to be a twist.
A pin ball wizard,
Got such a supple wrist.
('How do you think he does it?)
I don't know!
(What makes him so good?')
Unique:
Well, he ain't got no distractions
Can't hear those buzzers and bells,
Don't see lights a flashin'
He plays by sense of smell.
Always has a replay,
And never tilts at all...
That deaf dumb and blind kid
Unique und Vocal Adrenaline:
Sure plays a mean pin ball.
He can't beat me now
I've always been the champ
I know every trick
No freak's gonna beat my hand
Unique:
Even on my usual table,
he can beat the best.
His disciples lead him in,
and he just does the rest.
He's got crazy flipper fingers,
I never seen him fall,
That deaf, dumb, blind kid,
Unique und Vocal Adrenaline:
Sure plays a mean pinball.
He's a pinball wizard,
there has to be a twist.
A pinball wizard,
got such a supple wrist.
He's a pinball wizard,
his score's a trillion more.
A pinball wizard,
the world's new pinball lord.
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!
