[Verse 1]
B7
My wild pointy finger, it wags and it wiggles
B7
It's always serious, it never giggles
B7
And even when the rest of me is tryin' to get some sleep
B7
My wild pointy finger is out on the creep
[Chorus]
B7 A7 B7 A7 B7
I got a wwww-iiii-llld pointy finger
[Verse 2]
B7
It points at the fever and accomplishments of man
B7
It points at all the problems that it don't understand
B7
It points at Parisians across the sea
B7
It points at anybody who thinks different than me
B7
If you're marching to your own drum or kneelin' in the news
My wild pointy finger prob'ly pointin' right at you
[Chorus]
B7 A7 B7 A7 B7
I got a wwww-iiii-llld pointy finger
B7 A7 B7 A7 B7
I got a wwww-iiii-llld pointy finger
[Instrumental Break]
| E7 | E7 | E7 | E7 | [REPEAT UNTIL CUE]
(I don't get it)
[Verse 3]
B7
I've got ten digits like most other people
B7
I can build the church but I can't hold the steeple
B7
Nine of them stand up and do exactly what I say
B7
But the one by the thumb, it just points all day
B7
I can't be a poet and I can't be a star
B7
I've got not eye for beauty and I never learned guitar
B7
You'll just be disappointed if you're waitin' around to see
B7 N.C.
'Cause my wild pointy finger's never pointin' back at me
[Chorus]
B7 A7 B7 A7 B7
I got a wwww-iiii-llld pointy finger
B7 A7 B7 A7 B7
I got a wwww-iiii-llld pointy finger
