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")

[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)
