Verse 1
Em

[Aesop Rock]

Zoom in to the fuming of an

aggravated breed

Via the study of post-

adolesent agitated seeds

Half the patients wasted self
Baug

pride at Commencement
Em

So I focus on the urban Oxygen samples,

the hot that made it breathe

They sold Pompeii impression,

waste infections

And twelve steps to lesson
Bm

Cretins swiftly tippy toe on hard to swallow,

barter concepts
Am
D
Em
D

The give- it get- it, never let it self pass the word,
Em

eyeing stubbornness
Bm

Martyrs talks money causes in
Em

a harvesting Spartacus

And someone,

I've thrown long Hail Mary bombs

Toward cookie- cutter Mother Natures
Bm

bedazzled synthetic fabrics
D

Life treats the peasants like
C
D

They tried to fuck his woman
Em

while he slept inside

Well they're merely chasing

perfectionist emblems

When the clock strikes nine

I'll be waking with the best of

routine caffiene team players
Bm

For the cycle of it
Em
D
Dm
D
Em

Under a dusted angel
D

heartstring Big Brother is watching
Am
Em

My odometer like buzzard to fallen elk,

talking stealth

We got babies, rubber stamps,

and briefcase parts

We on some door- to- door now

Order ten dollars or more,
B
Bm
Em

we'll shove it down your throat for free
D
Dm
Em

I'll sacrifice my inborn
D

tendencies
Em

For copper pennies for one

commanding "Gimme that"

So we can retain baby fat

Make the biter snake bedlam

Holocaust freak,
Bm

heckle shiesty brain headroom shaped planet
Em
D

Make a move, pause,
Dm
D
Dm

make a move break cannon
D
Em

Bent barrel one eight zero,
Bm

you'll turn, squeeze, ending
Em

It's on like it's nev
Am

er been

It's bleeding well
Em

It's bigger than a breadbox

It can roast my leaky finance

I'll take my seat atop

the Brooklyn Bridge
Am
Em

With a Coke and a bag of chips

To watch a thousand lemmings

plummet just because

The first one slipped

Sometimes I laugh at victory,
Am
Em

kissing these little question marks

I tend to underestimate my average

Just another bastard savage
Am

Someday you'll all eat out
Em

of my cold hand
Am
Em

'cause every dog has its day

At which point, I'll pull it away
Verse 2
Em

Now we the American working population

Hate the fact that eight hours a day
Bm

Is wasted on chasing the dream
D

of someone that isn't us
Dm

And we may not hate our jobs
D
Em

But we hate jobs in general

That don't have to do

with fighting our own causes

We the American working population

Hate the nine- to- five day- in day- out
Bm

When we'd rather be supporting ourselves
D

By being paid to perfect the pasttimes

That we have harbored
Em

based solely on the fact

That it makes us smile if it

sounds dope
Verse 3
Em

[Aesop Rock] It's

the year of the silkworm

Everything I built burned yesterday
Bm

Let's display the purpose
Em
Dm

that these stilts serve
D

Elevate the spreading of the silk germ
Em

Trying to weave a web but all
B
Em

that I believe in is dead

Nah brother, it's the year of the jackal

Saddle up on high horse
Bm

My torch forced Polaris
Em

em barrassed
Dm
D

Shackle up the hassle by the dooming
Em

legend marriage

I bought some new sneakers
B
Em

I just hope my legacy matches

It's the year of the landshark

Dry as sand, parched,
Bm

damn get these men some water
Em
Dm

They're out there being slaughtered
D

In meaningless wars so you
Em

don't have to bother
Bm

And can sit and soak the idiotbox trying
B
Em

to fuck their daughters

Man it's the year of the Orphan

Seated adjacent to the firefly circling
Bm

the torches on your porches
D
Dm
D

Trying to guard the fortress of a king
Em

they've never seen or met

But all are trained to murder at the
B
Em

first sign of a threat

Maybe it's the year of the

waterbug

Cockroach utter thug specimen
B

Your response,
Bm
D
Dm

dreaming of your next of kin
D

I'm still dealing with this mess I'm in
Em

I've been the object of your ridicule
Bm
Em

You've been a bitch lieutenant

God it's the year of the

underpaid employee

Spitting forty plus a week
B
Bm
D

And trying to rape earth on my off time
Dm

You bought dizzy,

I can't keep myself busy enough
Em

So you can run run run
Bm

And I'ma let you think you won
Em

EVERYBODY!
Verse 4
Em

We the American working population

Hate the fact that eight hours a day

Is wasted on chasing the dream

of someone that isn't us

And we may not hate our jobs

But we hate jobs in general

That don't have to do
Em

with fighting our own causes

We the American working population
Em

Hate the nine to five day- in day- out

But we'd rather be supporting ourselves
Em

By be ing paid to perfect

the pasttimes

That we have harbored

based solely on the fact

That it makes us smile if it sound
Em

s dope
Verse 5
Em

[Aesop Rock]

Fumble outta bed and
Am

stumble to the kitchen
Em

Pour myself a cup of ambition and
Am

Yawn and stretch and

my life is a mess and
Em

If I never make it home today,

God bless

Fumble outta bed and
Am

stumble to the kitchen
Em

Pour myself a cup of ambition and
Am

Yawn and stretch and

my life is a mess and
Em

If I never make it home today, God bless

  • 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.
