  Verse 1:
E MajorE         A augmentedA   E MajorE       A augmentedA
A majorA small Jean Genie snuck off to the city
E MajorE          A augmentedA  E MajorE          A augmentedA
Strung out on lasers and slash back blazers and
E MajorE         A augmentedA   E MajorE         A augmentedA
Ate all your razors while pulling the waiters
E MajorE          A augmentedA  E MajorE          A augmentedA
Talking 'bout Monroe and walking on Snow White
E MajorE         A augmentedA  E MajorE          A augmentedA
New York's a go-go, and everything tastes nice
E MajorE          A augmentedA
Poor little Greenie

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

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