Selfish Gene

Sweet little baby from the hills somewhere

Here's a pretty lovebud for your hair

Itty bitty girl, sippin' Grenadine

Look who's talking to selfish Gene

There's a place way down in Brentwood

Out to Georgio's we all g'wine

The maitre 'd's gonna take care of everything

He's a personal friend of mine, what a prize you are'

Honey don't you scratch my new car

Selfish Gene, he's one in a million

A safe harbor in every storm

Many call but few are chosen

Hey, pretty baby, let's have a little fun

The Pinot is flowing and the night's still young

Over and above and behind and between

Make a little party for selfish Gene

Steady girl, let me grab on your wig hat

Down in the corn crib we shall go

No brains, no regrets, no worries

Hidey hi, hidey hey, hidey ho, kundalini now

Baby, let me show you how

Selfish Gene, don't lick no Manolos

He don't argue, he don't ask twice

Selfish Gene, don't serve two masters

(Why)

Must every time I turn my ship around'

Some bastard come and knock my skyline down

I guess that's everything I suppose

The play date's over and the case is closed

Tell me momma that I didn't do right

To have a little something on amateur night

I feel sure that we'll meet again sometime

Don't see why and I don't know when

Maybe I'll catch you down at the daily

If you haven't moved on by then

Take a dollar from the drawer

Daddy's got a whole lot more

Selfish Gene needs clarity and closure

This is his house and that's your cab

You need a hug, now don't be bashful

Do yourself and your friend a favor

You don't bargain with selfish Gene

Selfish Gene, don't take no prisoners
