Jeff found a genie in a bottle
who said, “I can give you anything you ask.
You can have your wishes, three, and a million more for free,
it's unlimited just set me to the task.”
Well, Jeff thought awhile, said, “I want houses.
I want boats, I want fancy modern art.
I want tickets to the MET, I want my own private jet,
and a rocket into space just for a start!”
Well, the genie waved her arms and made it happen.
His every wish bolted from the blue.
And folks all over town grew enamored, gathered ‘round,
to admire the man who wishes had come true.
They said, “Let's hear it for the man who has everything.
By good fortune he was set so far apart.
Yeah let's hear it for Jeff who’s got everything.
‘Cause his wishes are only at the start.”
Well, Jeff heard their shouts and he grew worried.
He said, “Everybody’s getting in my way.”
The genie smiled as before,
“You've got a million wishes more,
you can even give a bunch of them away.”
Well, Jeff got confused and sorta quiet.
'Til he finally said, “I have just one wish more.
I am satisfied, so I wish that you would die,
so you cannot grant wishes anymore.”
Well, the genie's eyes got big and sad and shiny.
‘Til she finally said, “Your wish is my command.”
And with an effervescent sigh she disappeared before his eyes
and no wishes were ever granted there again.
So let's hear it for the man who has everything.
By good fortune he was set so far apart.
Yeah let's hear it for Jeff who's got everything.
Every single f*cking thing except a heart.
