The Ballad of Jean Genet

Lyrics

Pass out sleeping, cigarette in hand
 History repeating on one man
 Friends in jail are all you got
 Photographs of Paris
 The Europeans feared
 Superficial details like paint in your hair
 Dressed in elegant despair
 A man in love with a man
 Students and workers on an empty stage
 One father beat you, one mother forgave
 Beauty in danger of dying
 A man in love with a man
 Shaking hands in battle, classical themes
 Books on a mantle signed by a thief
 A prisoner of love on your knees
 A man in love with a man
 A man in love with a man
