    Verse 1
    Spiraling 
    leapers, 

    wearing 
    Nike 
    sneakers 

    Some 
    of them 
    laugh, 
    some 
    of them 
    sing 

    Some 
    of them 
    don't 
    do 

    god
    damn 
    thing 

    Trip- 
    skipping 
    drifters, 

    grafters 
    and 
    lifters 

    Chicks 
    with 
    big 
    tits, 

    school 
    boys 
    with 
    zits 

    Moonlight 
    circus 
    of 
    earthly 
    delights 


    Pimpmobile cruising 
    the soft 
    velvet 
    night 

    Deals 
    going 
    down, 

    midnight 
    in 
    town 


    Down 
    into 
    the subways, 

    the underground 
    tunnels 

    mu
    sician 
    is 
    playing, 

    a drunk 
    stumbles 
    and mumbles 

    Out 
    in 
    the park 
    it's 
    scary 
    with 
    frights 

    Some
    body 
    shot 
    out 
    all 

    the streetlights 

    Verse 2

    Hookers 
    and 
    bookies, 
    floozies and 
    boozers 

    All 
    kinds 
    of 
    misfits, 
    perverts 
    and 
    losers 

    Out 
    of 
    the 
    limo 
    that 
    looks 
    like 
    boat 

    The pimp 
    steps 
    out 
    in a mink 
    fur 
    coat 

    Sport
    ing 
    Fedora, 
    that 
    creates 
    its 
    own 
    aura 

    ruby- 
    tooth 
    grin 
    and 
    diamond 
    stick 
    pin 

    deal's 
    going 
    down 
    this 
    side 

    Interlude 1
    of town 


    Verse 3
    People 
    walk 
    on 
    fleet 
    feetOn the way 

    down 
    42nd Street 

    Except 
    for the 
    bums, 
    down 
    for 
    the 
    count 

    That 
    one's 
    dead 
    but 
    no 
    one's 
    found 
    out 

    And 
    look 
    at 
    the bitch, 

    with 
    her dress 
    up ass 

    When 
    she moves 
    that 
    thing, 

    she must 
    move 
    it 
    fast 

    Cop 
    with 
    nightstick, checking 

    around 

    A neon 
    lit 
    junkie 
    slides 
    to 
    the ground 

    Here 
    comes 
    a flasher, 
    jogger, a 
    punk 

    Check 
    out 
    that 
    guy, 
    drunk 
    as 
    a skunk 

    Blinking, 
    reflection, 

    lights 
    melt 
    in 
    the rain 

    The side
    walks 
    are 
    empty, 

    nothing's 
    the same 

    4 A.M. 
    people 
    are crashing 

    Where 
    the hookers 
    are 
    huddled 

    Colored 
    raindrops 
    are splashing 

    The deals 
    have gone 
    down, 

    the 
    bimbo's split 
    town 

    Burned 
    from 
    the hustle, 

    burned 
    from 
    the hype 

    But 
    under 
    the 
    lights, 
    I'm 
    feeling 
    alright 

    On 
    42nd Street, 
    it's 
    just 
    another 



    night

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
