Geno |
| Back in '68 in a sweaty club |
| Oh, Geno |
| Before Jimmy’s Machine and The Rocksteady Rub |
| Oh-oh-oh Geno-o |
| On a night when flowers didn’t suit my shoes |
| After a week of flunkin' and bunkin' school |
| The lowest head in the crowd that night |
| Just practicin' steps and keepin' outta the fights |
| Academic inspiration, you gave me none |
| But you were Michael the lover |
| The fighter that won |
| But now just look at me |
| I’m looking down at you |
| No, Im not bein flash |
| That man took the stage, his towel was swingin' high |
| Oh Geno |
| This man was my bombers, my Dexy’s, my high |
| Oh-oh-oh Geno-o |
| The crowd they all hailed you, and chanted your name |
| But they never knew like we knew |
| Me and you were the same |
| And now you’re all over, your song is so tame, brrrrr |
| You fed me, you bred me, I’ll remember your name |
| Academic inspiration, you gave me none |
| You were Michael the lover |
| The fighter that won |
| But now just look at me |
| I’m looking down at you |
| No, Im not bein flash |
| Its what Im built to do Oh Geno, Woh-oh-oh Geno-o |
| Oh Geno, Woh-oh-oh Geno-o |
