The Jean Genie
Small Jean Genie, snuck off to the city
Strung out on lasers and slash back, blazers
And ate all your razors while pulling the waiters
Talking 'bout Monroe and walking on Snow White
New York's a go-go and everything tastes right
Poor little Greenie
Hoo-ooo
Get back on it
Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney slacks
He's outrageous (Jean Genie)
He screams and he bawls
The Jean Genie let yourself go, whoa
Sits like a man but he smiles like a reptile
She love him, she love him but just for a short while
She 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
Hoo-ooo
Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney slacks
He's outrageous (Jean Genie)
He screams and he bawls
The Jean Genie let yourself go, ohh
So simple-minded, he can't drive his module
He bites on the neon and sleeps in a capsule
Loves to be loved, loves to be loved
Hoo-ooo
Hoo-ooo
Ohh
Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney slacks
He's outrageous (Jean Genie)
He screams and he bawls
The Jean Genie let yourself go, whoa
Go, go
Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney slacks
He's outrageous (Jean Genie)
He screams and he bawls
The Jean Genie let yourself go, whoa
Go, go-go
Strung out on lasers and slash back, blazers
And ate all your razors while pulling the waiters
Talking 'bout Monroe and walking on Snow White
New York's a go-go and everything tastes right
Poor little Greenie
Hoo-ooo
Get back on it
Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney slacks
He's outrageous (Jean Genie)
He screams and he bawls
The Jean Genie let yourself go, whoa
Sits like a man but he smiles like a reptile
She love him, she love him but just for a short while
She 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
Hoo-ooo
Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney slacks
He's outrageous (Jean Genie)
He screams and he bawls
The Jean Genie let yourself go, ohh
So simple-minded, he can't drive his module
He bites on the neon and sleeps in a capsule
Loves to be loved, loves to be loved
Hoo-ooo
Hoo-ooo
Ohh
Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney slacks
He's outrageous (Jean Genie)
He screams and he bawls
The Jean Genie let yourself go, whoa
Go, go
Jean Genie lives on his back
The Jean Genie loves chimney slacks
He's outrageous (Jean Genie)
He screams and he bawls
The Jean Genie let yourself go, whoa
Go, go-go
