| 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 |
| It’s never enough |
| Six-Fingered Man |
| Always the first to blow his horn |
| His achievements multiply |
| Pity half of them seem to be lies |
| Always helps to advertise |
| It’s never enough |
| 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 |
| Oh, it’s never enough |
| 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 it’s never enough |
| 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 |
| Oh, it’s never enough |
| Oh, it’s never enough |
| Oh, it’s never enough |
| Six-Fingered |
| Man Alive! |
| How’d I ever get along with five? |
