The Genie

Walking down the street one day I noticed
Something fallen on the ground
Quite curious, I picked it up
And accidentally rubbed my hand

The thing exploding made smoke in the air
A little scared, I didn't move
A guy suddenly appeared in front of me
Without me knowing where he came from

Thanking me, he said I could ask
All your wishes I will have to fulfill
I hesitated, but agreed

I already knew the story by heart
And hurriedly asked for the best
Girl to stay with me
And a lot of money to have fun

But I didn't know the genie was too cunning
He won over my girl, deceiving me
And the money he got me was fake
When I complained, he said I became poor

And never a girl could date
Begged me a lot to stay
I hesitated, but let go

He doesn't want to leave my house anymore
All I can say is that I learned from him
Not to want everything too easy
Because, everything easy never brings value

But I didn't know the genie was too cunning
He won over my girl, deceiving me
And the money he got me was fake
When I complained, he said I became poor

And never a girl could date
Begged me a lot to stay
I hesitated, but let go

He doesn't want to leave my house anymore
All I can say is that I learned from him
Not to want everything too easy
Because, everything easy never brings value
Because, everything easy never brings value
Because, everything easy never brings value (ooh hoh)
Because, everything easy never brings value
