A story bout a street girl named Genius
Give herself a name thought it would bring her fame
Sang poetry and mime on the street corner line
Dancin' to a maze of passers by
In her blue jeans and her painted face
She took your mind through time and space
If desire could bring you everything you wanted
She woulda had it all a long, long time ago
In her mind she was reflecting the society we live in
That's enough to make a woman's heart go cold
In her blue jeans and her painted face
She took your mind through time and space
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
La,la,la,la,la,la
La,la,la,la,la,la
La,la,la,la,la,la
In her blue jeans and her painted face
She took your mind through time and space
It was a big night and the audience was expected
And a hush descended as she took the stage
And as she began to weave her magic
We were spellbound and under her tutelage
In her blue jeans and her painted face
She took your mind through time and space
In her blue jeans and her painted face
Take your mind
Through time and space
Take your mind
Through time and space
