   [Verse 1]
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

   [Verse 2]
E                A      E                A
Sits like a man, but he smiles like a reptile
    E                        A    E                A
She loves him, she loves him, but just for a short while
      E                     A     E             A
She'll scratch in the sand, won't let go his hand
   E                      A   E              A
He says he's a beautician and sells you nutrition
    E                       A    E              A
And keeps all your dead hair for making up underwear
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

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