The Lyrics
The Deadly Sin of Envy, one of 7 deadly sin parodies to the original AmIRight '7' epic parodies. . . check out badave.comfor more by me. . . PS On this particular one, I didn't repeat "I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless" or put in the backwards line because they don't really contribute to the song.
Oh
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
Old toy games like Battle Ship
and cars like the Ford Taurus
Anything my best friend has
Even his halitosis
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
My good friend think's that I'm a freak
Because I've got this fad
I even want me friend's physique
And all he's ever had
But you must think I'm quite the nerd
My envy always shows
I don't think it's all that absurd
I'm jealous of his clothes
Oh!
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
Things like his old oven mits
and his dog named ferocious
He's got lots of useless stuff
Like a glowing bed of roses
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
I want his chapstick and his girl
and his old ravished tent
His Asian swords and Batman trays
Although they have a dent
His junk has gotten me in awe
even his old jet skis
I think about it once again
I think that you'd agree
Oh..
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
Even his old paper planes
and his statue of Moses
Give me his old play handcuffs
And the music he composes
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
So even though I'm rather young
I can't go on this way
I really cannot be deterred
And I hope he never goes away
I've stollen his divorce decree
and his swiss army knife
I wish I had his lavish curls
And I want his shiny fife
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
Old toy games like Battle Ship
and cars like the Ford Taurus
Anything my best friend has
Even his halitosis
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
My good friend think's that I'm a freak
Because I've got this fad
I even want me friend's physique
And all he's ever had
But you must think I'm quite the nerd
My envy always shows
I don't think it's all that absurd
I'm jealous of his clothes
Oh!
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
Things like his old oven mits
and his dog named ferocious
He's got lots of useless stuff
Like a glowing bed of roses
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
I want his chapstick and his girl
and his old ravished tent
His Asian swords and Batman trays
Although they have a dent
His junk has gotten me in awe
even his old jet skis
I think about it once again
I think that you'd agree
Oh..
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
Even his old paper planes
and his statue of Moses
Give me his old play handcuffs
And the music he composes
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
I want a fiddle that is played by this guy
So even though I'm rather young

And I hope he never goes away
I've stollen his divorce decree
and his swiss army knife
I wish I had his lavish curls
And I want his shiny fife
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless
I am very envious of stuff that's rather worthless

cool
This is probably my favorite of the lot so far, it was just hilarious and had very Weird Al-like lyrics, just all around brilliant, the easiest song of the lot, but one that gives great results.
Ditto Matthias! Loved it! 5s
Song of the collector. - or pack rat.
you can have my fives...a fun sing a long
Now here's some writing to envy. Nice job catching the rhyme scheme in the verses and changing up the chorus lines. Nice slam on the Taurus, too. 5s.
And Dave still finds time to run web sites and record his tunes. Whew!
"You've stolden his 'Divorce Decree' . . . hmmm ~Scorpio~ you be?
LOL at unKnownVoter:) Well, My rising sign is anyway. . .anyhow, this one does appear to be doing my best, and I can't say I'm terribly surprised, it's the one I had most fun with of the deadly 7, which was surprising because Envy was the sin I feared the most. . thanks everyone!
I'm envious of what you've done with the OS. I've got a take on it cued up for tomorrow.
Ha ha. . .that's funny enough to be it's own parody John Barry, thanks:)
Green is a good color for you, BADave. Your envy led to writing a great parody! 5s.
Where were you at our last neighborhood garage sale? ;)
lol excellent job! This parody isn't worthless at all 555 random things for you!
Artistry-60
Dave - What can I say - one man's junk is another's treasure. I can relate. So do you have the warning bumper sticker on your car that says “WARNING - I break for garage sales".

Well I can tell you one thing, This parody wasn't worthless. I still love it.
(Artistry) Is it too reaching of me to think that the line " Although they have a dent" right after the Batman tray line is a reference to Harvey Dent? Maybe I'm just too much of a nerd. AHEM, great job, 555, blah blah blah.
Totally agree with Matthias and all the other positive comments here. Great job! 555
(Artistry) Just give me your address and boxes of worthless stuff can be yours, like that plastic piece we found on the floor that nobody knows what it goes to but if we throw it away we'll immediately find it's a critical component of something.
