Loading...

[verse 1]
six-fingered man
playing a seven-string guitar
there are seven deadly sins
any one of them can do you in
take what you lost from what you win

[chorus]
oh, it’s never enough

[verse 2]
six-fingered man
always the first to blow his h-rn
his achievements multiply
pity half of them seem to be lies
always helps to advertise

[chorus]

[verse 3]
he seems so satisfied
with a reputation to protect
unless he thinks that you’re more qualified
gets so much of his own affection
stares for hours at his reflection
long-legged gal walking a very tiny man
they say that it should be forbidden
must be something he has hidden
take what you want from what you’re given

[chorus]

[verse 4]
six-fingered man
shaking his fist at everyone
couldn’t even act his age
if you put him on a stage
you might say he’s all the rage but

[chorus]

[verse 5]
getting his prints on everything
he’s got semi-precious gems
glinting in his signet ring
needs his fingers and his thumbs
to help him calculate his sums
six-fingered man
can’t be bothered to stir himself
sleeps the whole day long or more
dreams of someone he adores
drains one drink and starts to pour

[chorus][x3]

[outro][x4]
six-fingered
man alive!
how’d i ever get along with five?
