The Waterboys Lyrics

"Hopper's On Top (Genius)"

Genius!
Genius!
Hurrah!
Genius!
Hurrah!

Dennis Hopper man
Pleased to meet you
You wanna compete man
I'm a gonna beat you
Come on Hollywood
I'm a gonna eat you
Then I'm gonna save your soul

Flew in from Cannes
With the roar of the greasepaint in my ears

Are you ready?
Are you ready?
For the most creative generation
In the last two thousand years

Genius!
Hurrah!
Genius!
Hurrah!

Yeah man, Hopper's on top
And I'm never gonna stop
I'm gonna turn the whole damn underground pop
Pop!
Take it from the basement
Put it on top
Send it round the world
We're troubleshottin'
A new kind of human, man
That's right
I am the prototype
You're my prototype woman, man
Let's evolve together, big boy

Genius!
Hurrah!
Genius!
Hurrah!

Genius!
Hurrah!

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!
Genius!
Hurrah!

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!
Genius!
Hurrah!
