Geno Lyrics - Nowhere Is Home: Live At The Duke Of York's Theatre - Dexys

Geno! Geno! Geno! Geno! 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, I'm not beinh 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-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, I'm not being flash 

It's what I'm built to do
