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 bumpers, 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's got such a supple wrist
How do you think he does it I don't know
What makes him so good
Ain't got no distractions, can't hear no buzzes or bells
Don't see lights a-flashing, plays by sense of smell
Always gets a replay, never seen him fall
That deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball
I thought I was the Bally table king
But I just handed my pinball crown to him
Even on my favourite table, he can beat my best
His disciples lean 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

Aram Quartet è stato un quartetto vocale italiano formatosi in Salento. Il nome del gruppo è un acronimo delle iniziali dei quattro componenti: Antonio Maggio, Raffaele Simone, Antonio Ancora e Michele Cortese. Il quartetto ha vinto la prima edizione di X Factor Italia nel 2008, battendo altri concorrenti con una performance vocale potente e armoniosa. Aram Quartet si è distinto per l'interpretazione di brani pop e soul, spesso arricchiti da arrangiamenti originali.
