    Verse 1
    When 
    I 
    was 
    younger, 

    just 
    a 
    bad 
    little 
    kid 

    My 
    mama 
    noticed 
    funny 
    things 
    I 
    did 

    Like 
    shootin' 
    puppies 
    with 
    a 
    BB gun 

    I'd poison 
    guppies, and 

    when 
    I 
    was 
    done 

    I'd 
    find 
    a 
    pussycat 
    and 
    bash 
    in it's 
    head 

    That's 
    when my 
    mama 

    said 

    (What did she 
    say?) 

    Verse 2
    She said, 
    "My boy, 
    I 
    think 
    someday 

    You'll 
    find 
    a 
    way 

    To make 
    your 
    natural 
    tendencies 
    pay 

    You'll 
    be 
    a 
    dentist 
    (You'll be a 

    dentist) 

    You have 
    a talent 
    for 
    causin' 

    things 
    pain 
    (Pain) 

    Son, 
    be 
    a 
    dentist 
    (Son, be a 

    dentist) 

    People 
    will 
    pay 
    you 
    to 
    be 
    inhu

    mane 
    (Inhumane) 

    Your 
    temperament's wrong 

    for 
    the 
    priesthood 

    And 
    teaching 
    would 
    suit 
    you 
    still 
    less 

    Son, 
    be 
    a dentist 

    You'll 
    be 
    a 
    success!" 

    Verse 3
    Here 
    he 
    is 
    folks, 
    the 

    leader 
    of 
    the plaque! 

    Watch 
    him 
    suck 
    up 
    that 
    gas, 
    oh 
    my 
    god! 

    He 
    is 
    a 
    dentist 
    and 
    he'll 

    never 
    ever 
    be 
    any 
    good 

    Who 
    wants 
    their 
    teeth 
    done 

    by 
    the Marquis 
    de Sade? 

    Oh, 
    that 
    Verse 4
    hurts! 
    Wait, 
    I'm 
    not 
    numb! 

    Oh, 
    shut 
    up 

    Open 
    wide, 
    here 
    I 
    come! 

    I 
    am 
    your 
    dentist 

    (Goodness gracious) 

    And 
    I 
    en
    joy 
    the 
    career 

    that 
    I 
    picked 
    (Love it) 

    I 
    am your 
    dentist 
    (Fitting braces) 

    And 
    I 
    get 
    off 
    on 
    the 
    pain 

    I in
    flict 
    (Really love 
    it) 

    Verse 5
    I 
    thrill 
    when 
    I 
    drill 
    a 

    bicuspid (Bicuspid) 

    It's 
    swell 
    though 
    they tell 
    me 
    I'm 
    mal

    ad
    jus
    ted 
    (Dentist) 

    And though 
    it 
    may 
    cause 
    my 
    patients 
    distress 

    (Dis
    tress) 

    Somewhere, somewhere 

    in 
    heaven 
    above 
    me 

    I 
    know, 
    I know, 

    that my 
    mama's 
    proud 
    of 
    me 

    Oh, 
    mama? 

    Verse 6

    'Cause 
    I'm 
    a dentist, 

    and 
    a 
    suc
    cess! 

    Say 
    ah! 
    (Ah) 

    Say 
    ah! 
    (Ah) 

    Say 
    ah! 
    (Ah) 

    Now 
    spit!

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
