    Verse 1
    Don't 
    lie 

    Where 
    have 
    you 
    been? 

    Your 
    teeth 
    are 
    red 

    Your 
    eyes 
    are 
    peppermints 

    Sailing 
    out 
    to 
    sea 
    with 

    your 
    new 
    best 
    friend 

    You 
    don't 
    like 
    the 
    way 
    you 
    live 

    So's 
    you 
    play 
    pretend 

    Verse 2
    But 
    isn't 
    it 
    time 
    you 
    act 
    your 
    age? 

    You 
    got 
    a 
    mortgage 
    on 
    your 
    shoulders 

    Got a babe 
    on 
    the 
    way 

    You shrug 
    it 
    out 
    with your 

    jackass 
    grin 

    Thinkin' 
    as soon 
    as you 
    clean 
    up 

    You're 
    gonna 
    do 
    it 
    again 

    Verse 3
    He says 

    I'm 
    going 
    to pleasure 
    island 

    I 
    don't 
    wanna 
    come 
    home 

    The 
    reverend 
    says 
    beware 

    He swears 
    we're 
    goin' 
    to 
    hell 

    We 
    may 
    be 
    donkeys 

    But 
    at 
    least 
    we 
    have 
    a tale 
    to 
    tell 

    Verse 4

    Don't 
    start 
    with a slap 
    on 
    the 
    wrist 

    I don't 
    need 
    no 
    cease 
    and 
    assist 

    I 
    ain't 
    foolin' 
    'round 

    And it 
    ain't 
    no 
    sin 

    So's 
    you 
    be
    st 
    be stepping 
    back 

    those 
    ugly 
    ulti
    matum
    s 

    Verse 5
    And 
    never 
    you 
    mind 
    what your 

    old 
    maid 
    says 

    There 
    ain't 
    nothin' 
    to 
    complain 

    So long's 
    you're 
    earning 
    bread 

    She's 
    got 
    a 
    way 
    of 

    getting 
    under 
    your skin 

    She 
    plants 
    a little 
    seed 
    of 
    doubt 

    The 
    guilt 
    blossoms 

    Verse 6
    She says 

    If you're 
    go
    ing 
    to pleasure 
    island 

    You 
    can 
    never 
    come 
    home 

    The 
    problem 
    with 
    your 

    kid: you 
    can't 
    say 
    no 

    You 
    can't 
    take 
    a 
    little 
    nibble 

    You 
    got 
    to 
    lick 
    the 
    bone 

    Interlude 1



    I pushed 
    off 
    Verse 7

    I'm 
    sail
    in' 
    away 

    And 
    I 
    ain't 
    lookin' 
    back 

    Can't 
    have 
    you 
    seein' 
    me 
    this 
    way 

    This 
    just 
    might 
    be 
    my

    greatest 
    mistake 


    Throw
    in' 
    the 
    future 
    tense 
    away 

    For 
    the present's 
    presence 

    My 
    life 
    was 
    but 
    a 
    pleasure 

    But

    sure 
    was 
    pleasant

    home 

    I'll 
    make 
    an 
    ass 
    out 
    of 
    myself 

    Sooner 
    than

    Verse 10
    I'm

    ing 
    to pleasure 
    island 

    I 
    ain't 
    comin' 
    back 
    home 


    Mama's 
    thumpin' 
    her 
    bible 

    She 
    swears 
    we're 
    going 
    to 
    hell 

    And 
    papa's

    • 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.”
