    Slug: "I didn't say 

    nothin'." 

    Girl: "What?" 

    Slug: "I didn't 
    say 
    nothin'.'" 

    Girl: "Yes 
    you did." 

    Slug: "No I 
    didn't." 

    Girl: "No you 
    didn't 
    say 
    anything, 

    you just 
    looked 
    at me funny 

    like I'm 
    some 
    sort of 
    fucking 

    freak." 

    Slug: "I didn't 
    look 
    at you." 

    Girl: "Yeah, 

    you looked 
    at me." 

    Slug: "No." 

    Girl: 
    "Yeah, you 
    fucking 
    did." 

    Slug: "What do you 
    mean freak?" 

    Verse 2
    Who's 
    this one 

    about? Who's 

    this 
    one about?... 

    Verse 3
    [Slug] 

    These headphones 
    keep 
    me from 
    re

    memberin' 
    (rememberin') 

    Also 
    guilty 
    of 
    letting 
    me not 
    forget 

    (also guilty) 

    What type 
    of harvest 
    will 
    September 

    bring? 
    (beckoning) 

    Everyone 
    to put him 
    to that 
    test 

    (Somebody please 
    kill 
    me) 

    I've got 
    a sickness, 
    it feels 
    like 
    love 

    It's 
    not 
    contagious, 
    take 
    off 
    the gloves 

    Drop 
    your defenses, 

    apply 
    a coat 
    of perfect 

    I'll 
    form the 
    sentences 

    you try 
    to 
    interpret 

    It'd all 
    be 
    so simple 
    if I was 

    rich 
    (But I'm 
    not) 

    But 
    I'm not 
    so I 
    compensate 

    with 
    thought (I got 
    a lot) 

    I got 
    a lot 
    of nothin' 
    that 
    you need 

    to know 
    (Ay yo) 

    You would 
    think 
    he wasn't 
    aware 
    of 
    the glow 

    (Where'd you go?) 

    Swimmin' in 
    a bottle 
    of imposters 

    Losin' 
    my 
    ground 
    in the 
    name of 

    takin' 
    it farther 

    We can 
    thumb 
    wrestle 
    or we can 

    make 
    a daughter 

    I thought 
    it 
    was supposed 
    to get 

    easier 
    when you 
    worked 
    harder 

    Stole 
    the city, 
    still 
    feel 
    helpless 

    Baited 
    the hook 
    and caught 
    me 

    a shellfish 
    (?selfish?) 

    I'm gonna 
    gut 
    it, clean 
    it, 

    cook 
    it, feed 
    it to 
    a she(?) 

    And see 
    if I can 
    get 
    her to 
    need 
    me 

    Verse 4


    [Chorus x2] 

    And now I'm 
    standin' 
    at the 

    bottom 
    of the 
    steps 

    And if 
    tilt 
    my head 
    little 

    I can 
    look 
    up her 
    dress 

    And 
    I'm 
    willin' to 
    bet 
    that 

    she'd 
    move 
    if she 
    knew 

    So 
    I'ma 
    tap 
    her on the 
    shoulder, 

    I'ma 
    give 
    her a clue 

    [Slug] 
    All it 
    takes 
    is a 
    stroll 
    down the 
    street 

    Verse 5

    pro 
    and 
    he greets 
    and he 

    sold 
    the life to 
    me 

    Showed 
    you the 
    meaning 
    of the 
    artery 
    he 

    keeps on 
    the end 
    of his 
    sleeve 

    As he pretends 
    he can 
    breathe 

    Lend 
    me 
    a piece 
    of your 
    superiority 

    I feel 
    alone on 
    this mission, 

    I'm wishin' 
    there was 
    more 
    of me 

    pair 
    of me, 
    apparently 
    I'm 
    a parasite 

    caught 
    inside 
    a paradox 

    A paradise, 
    a parody, 

    the 
    hair police 
    have 
    got 
    what 
    you 
    need 

    For you 
    to get 
    over me 
    and move 

    on with 
    Godspeed 

    I'd 
    let it 
    all go 
    and break 
    eggs 
    for 
    a livin' 

    If 
    I wasn't 
    so conditioned 

    to just 
    take 
    what 
    I'm given 

    Get 
    it, 
    got it, 
    catch 
    it, caught it, and 
    lost 
    it 

    Yet 
    I can't 
    stop 
    it, it's 

    embedded 
    in my 
    optics 

    Plus 
    the frustration 
    is 

    a product 
    of the 
    gossip 

    If you 
    can't 
    walk 
    away can 
    you at 
    least 

    change 
    the topic? 

    Overextended the 
    amount 

    of time 
    al
    lotted 

    Broke 
    the en
    gine, 
    don't know, 

    cracked 
    the block 

    Now 
    I'm 
    standin' 
    at 
    this gravel 

    roadside 
    fest
    ival 

    And 
    I ain't 
    tryin' to 
    move 
    cause this 

    Verse 6
    view 
    is incredible 

    [Chorus 
    x2] 

    Standin' at the 
    bottom 
    of the 
    steps 

    And if 
    I tilt my 
    head 
    a little 
    I can 

    look 
    up her 
    dress 

    And I'm willin' 
    to 
    bet 
    that 

    she'd 
    move 
    if she 
    knew 

    So 
    I'ma 
    tap 
    her on the 
    shoulder, 

    I'ma 
    give her 
    a clue 

    Verse 7
    [Slug] 
    Fall 
    in love 

    with 
    all of 
    she 
    (Fall in 

    love 
    with all 
    of 
    she) 

    Hasn't 
    stopped 
    callin' 

    me (Hasn't stopped 
    callin' 
    me) 

    Message 
    in 
    a bottle 

    (There's a message 
    in 
    bottle) 

    And 
    I stepped 
    inside 
    pothole (I stepped 

    inside 
    pothole) 

    Somehow 
    forgot 
    my 
    name 

    (Somehow forgot 
    my 
    name) 

    Blew out 
    the 
    flame 
    (She blew 

    out the 
    flame) 

    A means 
    to 
    an end 
    (A means 

    to 
    an 
    end) 

    Can't even 
    be 
    friends, 

    it's 
    a song 
    about 
    a friend 

    She's 
    still 
    in my 
    dreams 

    (She steals 
    all 
    my 
    dreams) 

    Angel 
    spread 
    your 
    wings 
    (Angel spread 

    your 
    wings) 

    Tryin' to comprehend 
    (I'm still 

    tryin' 
    to 
    comprehend) 

    Can't even 
    be 
    friends, 

    Interlude 1
    it's 
    a song 
    about 
    a friend 






    Verse 8
    [Slug talking] 
    All 





    together...(Crowd: WHOOO!) 

    Smile 
    while you do 
    that shit, 

    you know what 
    I'm saying? 

    Cause 
    like some 
    of ya'll, 

    if you ain't 
    smilin' 
    you're 
    ugly 
    I swear 
    to God 

    Alright, 
    some 
    neat ones 

    (?Shaniquas?) 

    Alright, on the count 
    of 
    three. 1. 2.

    • 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.
