Small Jean Genie snuck off to the city
Strung out on laisers and slash back laisers
And ate all your razors while pulling the waiters
Talking 'bout Monroe and walking on Snow-White
New York's a go-go when ev'rything tastes nice
Poor little Greenie.......
The Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls
(The Jean Genie)
The Jean Genie, let yourself go...........
Sits like a man but smiles like a reptile
She loves him, she loves him
But just for a short while
She'll scratch in the sand, won't let go his hand
He say's he's a beautician, sells you nutrition
And keeps all your dead hair for making up underwear
Poor little Greenie.......
The Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls
(The Jean Genie)
The Jean Genie, let yourself go...........
So simple minded he can't drive his module
He bites on a neon and sleeps in a capsule
Loves to be loved.........
Loves to be loved.........
*** Guitar Solo ***
The Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls
(The Jean Genie)
The Jean Genie, let yourself go...........
Go!..... Go!....
The Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls
(The Jean Genie)
The Jean Genie, let yourself go...........
Go!..... Go!....
