[A] [E]
[A] [E]
Small Gene Genie snuck off to the [A] city
[E] Strung out in laces and slashed-back [A] [E] blazers
Ate all your razors while pulling the [A] waders
[E] Talking about Monroe and walking in Snow White
New York's a go-go and everything tastes black
Poor little greenie
[A] [E] [A] [E]
[B]
Gene Genie is on his back
And Gene Genac lost him his hat
This kind of rage ass screams when we fall
But Gene Genac, let yourself go!
[A] Sits [D]
[A] [D] [E]
like a [A] man but [E] smiles like a [A] reptile
[E] She loved him, she [A] loved him [E] but just for a [A] short [E] while
She's scratching the sand, let go of his hand
He says he's a mutation, sells you [A] nutrition
[E] Keeps all your dead [A] hair [E] for making up [A] [E] underwear
For a little [A] green [E] leek
[A] [E] [A] [E]
Gene [B] Genac lives on his back
Gene Genac lost him his hat
This kind of rage ass screams when we fall
But Gene Genac, let yourself [A] go!
[D] [A]

So simple minded, can't drive his model
Lights on the neon and snitching a capsule
Love's to be loved,
[A] [E] love's to be loved
