The Jean Genie
by David Bowie
Verse 1: (E riff is played twice for each line)
E E E A E E E A
Small Jean Genie, she took off to the city,
E E E A E E E A
Strung out on lasers and slash-back blazers
Ate all your razors while pulling the waiters
Talking 'bout Monroe while walking on snow white
New York's a go-go, and everything tastes nice,
Poor little greenie...
Oowwooohoo
Chorus:
-------
Gene Genie, lives.....back
B riff
Jean Genie, lives on his back,
Jean Genie, loves Jimmy's ex,
"It's outrageous", he screams and he bawls,
Jean Genie, let yourself go!
A riff x2
Ohooo
Sits like an adder, he smiles like a reptile,
She love him, she love him, but just for a short while,
She's scratching the sand, won't let go of his hand,
He says he's a beautician, he sells you nutrition,
Keeps off your dead hair and making a bundle,
Poor little greenie, ooo oohooo
Chorus
He's so simple minded, he can't drive his module,
He bites on the neon and sleeps in a capsule
Loves to be loved x2
