Who

Ever since I was a young boy I 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 sure plays a mean pinball.
He stands like a statue, becomes part of the machine,
Feeling all the bumbers, always playing clean.
Plays by intuition. The digit counters fall.
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 got such a supple wrist.
How do you think he does it? I DON'T KNOW
What makes him so good?
