Ween is a rock group formed in 1984 in New Hope, Pennsylvania when Aaron Freeman and Mickey Melchiondo met in a junior high school typing class. The pair became known as Gene and Dean Ween. Thousands of home recordings later, Ween collected a large underground fanbase despite being generally unknown in pop music. Their earliest home recordings were anarchic and free-spirited, drawing on influences as far-reaching as the Beatles, Queen, Prince, Butthole Surfers, The Residents and the lo-fi punk movement. Ween was often compared in their early years to other offbeat artists such as Frank Zappa and would always eschew such comparisons.

I Saw Gener Cryin' In His Sleep Lyrics
Ween
[studio version appears on "pure guava"]
Shitting on my face...
I'll count us in (ah, ok)
1, 2, 3, 4
I heard my brother weepin' in the dead of the night
I said, "dude, man, you feelin' alright"
Gener said nothin' and continued to weep
I caught papa gene ween cryin' in his sleep
I saw gener cryin' in his sleep
I tried to wake him up but he made not a peep
I saw gener cryin' in his sleep
Life at the top can be tough
Sometimes you think you've seen enough
But you can find a diamond in the rough
But when it's time for bed, you shouldn't think about that stuff
Yeah, i saw gener cryin' in his sleep
I tried to wake him up but he made not a peep
I saw gener cryin' in his sleep
Danny!
Alright!
[chorus]
Danny!
[chorus]
Thank you, we're ween
