E                 A      E              A
A small Jean Genie snuck off to the city
E                   A   E                   A
Strung out on lasers and slash back blazers and
E                  A       E                  A
Ate all your razors while pulling the waiters
E                   A     E                   A
Talking 'bout Monroe and walking on Snow White
E                  A    E                     A
New York's a go-go, and everything tastes nice
E                  A
Poor little Greenie

Chorus:
B              Bsus4
The Jean Genie lives on his back
B              Bsus4
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks
(The Jean Genie)
B                Bsus4
He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls
B               Bsus4
The Jean Genie, let yourself go

Sits like a man, but he 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 says he's a beautician and sells you nutrition
And keeps all your dead hair for making up underwear
Poor little Greenie

Chorus

He's so simple minded, he can't drive his module
He bites on the neon and sleeps in the capsule
Loves to be loved
Loves to be loved
