Just a little more phoolish philosophy!
My life is like a pinball game As I've bounced from post to pillar They said "Watch out for that first step" Sure as heck-it was a killer I looked to neither left or right As I stepped into life's fray And bounced 'round like some fool pinball Common sense could not allay No matter how I played the game My life was out of kilter And the reason very simply is- I've always been a "tilter" So I'm going to change my tactics 'Cause I'm beaten black and blue I think I'll try a different tack And see what those flippers do!�

But the pinball machine was a fun thing to play and in many ways better than going out and playing with guns. A nice write on an old pastime.
