[E]
[A]
[E]
Small Genie [E]
snuck off to the city
Snung out on lazy pants, slashed [A] back [E] blazers
Ate all your raisins while pulling the waiter
Talking about Monroe and walking in Snow White
New York's a go-go and everything tastes like
More than a greenie
[B] Dream Genie lives on his back
The Dream Genie loves Jim's his dash
The Dream Genie screams and he hollers
The Dream Genie lets yourself go
[A] Sits [D] [A]
[D] [E]
like a man but smiles like a reptile
She loves him, she loves him but just for [A] a short [E] while
Scratching the sand but let go of his hands
Says he's a beautician, sells you nutrition
Keeps all your [A] dead [E] hair but making [A] up [E] underwear
All a greenie
[A]
[E] Dream
[B] Genie lives on his back
The Dream Genie loves Jim's his dash
The Dream Genie screams and he hollers
The Dream Genie lets himself [A] go

So simple minded, can't drive his moped road
Lights on in the August, it's in a capsule
Love's to be loved
Love's to be loved
