Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file



XI. Do You Think It's Alright

Mother:
Do you think it's alright,
To leave the boy with Uncle Ernie?
Do you think it's alright;
He's had a few too many tonight!
D'you think it's alright?

Father:
I think it's alright

XII. Fiddle About

Uncle Ernie:
I'm your wicked Uncle Ernie
I'm glad you won't see or hear me
As I fiddle about
Fiddle about
Fiddle about!

Your mother left me here to mind you
Now I'm doing what I want to
Fiddling about, fiddling about, fiddle about!

Down with the bedclothes
Up with the nightshirt!
Fiddle about, fiddle about, fiddle about!

You won't shout as I fiddle about
Fiddle about, fiddle about, fiddle about!
Fiddle about, fiddle about, fiddle about!
Fiddle about, fiddle about, fiddle about!
Fiddle about, fiddle about, fiddle about!
Fiddle, fiddle, fiddle, fiddle, fiddle,
fiddle, fiddle, fiddle, fiddle,
fiddle, fiddle, fiddle, fiddle.

XIII. Pinball Wizard

Local Lad:
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
Sure plays a mean pinball!

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
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 ain't got no distractions
Can't hear those buzzers and bells,
Don't see those lights a flashin'
Plays by sense of smell.
Always has a replay,
'n' never tilts at all...
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 my usual table
He can beat my best.
His disciples lead 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!!

XIV. There's a Doctor I've Found

Father:
There's a doctor I've found
Could bring us all joy!
There's a doctor I've found could cure the boy!
There's a doctor I've found could cure the boy!

There's a man I've found could remove his sorrow,
He lives in this town let's see him tomorrow,
He lives in this town let's see him tomorrow!

XV. Go to the Mirror Boy!

Doctor:
He seems to be completely unreceptive.
The tests I gave him show no sense at all.
His eyes react to light the dials detect it.
He hears but cannot answer to your call.

Tommy:
See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.
See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.

Doctor:
There is no chance no untried operation.
All hope lies with him and none with me.
Imagine though the shock from isolation.
When he suddenly can hear and speak and see.

Tommy:
See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.
See me, feel me, touch me, heal me.

Doctor:
His eyes can see
His ears can hear his lips speak
All the time the needles flick and rock.
No machine can give the kind of stimulation,
Needed to remove his inner block.

Go to the mirror boy!
Go to the mirror boy!

Father:
I often wonder what he's feeling.
Has he ever heard a word I've said?
Look at him now in the mirror dreaming
What is happening in his head?

Tommy:
Listenin' 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 the opinions
From you I get the story.

Father:
What is happenin' in his head
Ooooh, I wish I knew, I wish I knew.

XVI. Tommy Can You Hear Me?

Mother:
Tommy can you hear me?
Can you feel me near you?
Tommy can you see me?
Can I help to cheer you.
Ooooh, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy
Tommy can you hear me?
Can you feel me near you?
Tommy can you see me?
Can I help to cheer you.
Ooooh, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy
Tommy can you hear me?
Can you feel me near you?
Tommy can you see me?
Can I help to cheer you.
Ooooh, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy
Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy...

XVII. Smash the Mirror

Mother:
You don't answer my call
With even a nod or a twitch
But you gaze at your own reflection!
You don't seem to see me
But I think you can see yourself.
How can the mirror affect you?

Can you hear me
Or do I surmise?
That you fear me can you feel my temper
RISE, RISE, RISE, RISE, RISE, RISE, RISE,
RISE, RISE, RISE, RISE, RISE, RISE!
Do you hear or fear or
Do I smash the mirror.
Do you hear or fear or
Do I smash the mirror?
SMASH!

XVIII. Sensation

Tommy:
I overwhelm as I approach you
Make your lungs hold breath inside!
Lovers break caresses for me
Love enhanced when I've gone by.

You'll feel me coming,
A new vibration
From afar you'll see me
I'm a sensation.
I'm a sensation.

They worship me and all I touch
Hazy eyed they catch my glance.
Pleasant shudders shake their senses
My warm momentum throws their stance.

You'll feel me coming
A new vibration
From afar you'll see me
I'm a sensation.
I'm a sensation.

Soon you'll see me can't you feel me
I'm coming...
Send your troubles dancing he knows the answer
I'm coming...
I'm coming...
I'm a sensation.

I leave a trail of rooted people
Mesmerised by just the sight.
The few I touch are now disciples
Love as One, I Am the Light...
