Geno! Geno! Geno! Geno! Geno! ... Back in '68 in a sweaty club (Oh, Geno) Before Jimmy's Machine and The Rocksteady Rub (Oh, Geno) 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 as I'm looking down at you No, I'm not bein' flash, It's what I'm built to do That man took the stage, his towel was swingin' high (Oh Geno) This man was my bombers, my Dexy's, my high (Oh, Geno) How 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, brrr You fed me, you bred me, I'll remember your name Academic inspiration, you gave me none But you were Michael the lover The fighter that won But now just look at me as I'm looking down at you No, I'm not bein' flash, It's what I'm built to do Oh, Geno (Oh, Geno) Oh, Geno (Oh, Geno)
