   A – E                                - A            E
1.         A small Jean Genie      snuck off to the city,
A      E                         - A          E
    strung out on lasers      and slash-back blazers,
A   E                              A    E
    ate all your razors while pulling the waiters.
A    E                              - A       E
    Talking 'bout Monroe,          walking on snow white,
A    E                             A     E
    New York's a go-go, and everything tastes nice,
A    E                          - AEEE  AEEE AEEE 
    poor little greenie.                  Uhu!

          Jean Genie, lives on his back,

2.   Sits like a man, but he smiles like a reptile,
A         E                                        A  E
    she loves him, she loves him, but just for a short while.
A               E                             A     E
   She's scratching the sand, won't let go of his hand,
A        E                                  A    E
    he says he's a beautician, he sells you nutrition,
A    E                             A            E
   Keeps off your dead hair and making up underwear,  
A    E                         AEEE  AEEE AEEE    -
    poor little greenie.              Uhu!

3.   He's so simple minded,      he can't drive his module,
A        E                          A      E                           - AEEE
    he bites on the neon and sleeps in a capsule.
A   E                         - AEEE   - A   E
    Loves to be loved!                    Loves to be loved.
