Roll around
And I stare at you
Your lights and sound
Am I scared of you?
You could take me down
Like you set to do
But hear me now
I'll take care of you
Light me up
Knock me down
I'm free game whenever you're around
So lock me in, we're special bound
'Cause you're my silverball
Had it all
There and back again
I destroyed the ring
On the attack again
The multiball
Was on track again
But I watched it fall
Through the center drain
Light me up
Knock me down
I'm free game whenever you're around
So lock me in, we're special bound
'Cause you're my silverball
Silence is fine
But you won't play me blind
Drops inline
We said everytime
I'll change your mind
If I nudge you oh-so carefully
Setting up
Hittin' shots again
Getting tough
Makin' locks again
If you've seen one
Then they're all the same
Just shoot the lights
And avoid outlanes
Light me up
Knock me down
I'm free game whenever you're around
So lock me in, we're special bound
'Cause you're my silverball
Light me up
Knock me down
I'm free game whenever you're around
So lock me in, we're special bound
'Cause you're my silverball
