'''I Can't Snap My Fingers''' is track 6 from the album ''[[Arthur's Really Rockin' Music Mix]]''. It is an entirely original song, not based on any story from the ''[[Arthur (TV series)|Arthur]]'' TV show. The song is in the style of lounge jazz and is about [[Buster Baxter]] not being able to snap his fingers, until finally he learns how.

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the Sugar Bowl that master of the melody, Mr. Buster Baxter.<br />
