Verse 1:
E Esus4 E Esus4
A small Jean Genie snuck off to the city
E Esus4 E Esus4
Strung out on lasers and slash back blazers and
E Esus4 E Esus4
Ate all your razors while pulling the waiters
E Esus4 E Esus4
Talking 'bout Monroe and walking on Snow White
E Esus4 E Esus4
New York's a go-go, and everything tastes nice
E Esus4 E Esus4
Poor little Greenie
E Esus4 E
(Wooo hooo)
E Esus4 E Esus4
("Get back one")
Chorus:
B A
The Jean Genie lives on his back
B A
The Jean Genie loves chimney stacks (The Jean Genie)
B A
He's outrageous, he screams and he bawls
B Bb A
The Jean Genie, let yourself go

Verse 2:
E Esus4 E Esus4
Sits like a man, but he smiles like a reptile
E Esus4 E Esus4
She loves him, she loves him, but just for a short while
E Esus4 E Esus4
She'll scratch in the sand, won't let go his hand
E Esus4 E Esus4
He says he's a beautician and sells you nutrition
E Esus4 E Esus4
And keeps all your dead hair for making up underwear
E Esus4 E Esus4
Poor little Greenie
E Esus4 E Esus4
(Wooo hooo)
