    Verse 1
    We 

    know 
    that 
    we could 
    sell 
    your 
    magazines 

    If 
    only 
    you 
    would 
    give 
    your life 

    to 
    literature 
    just 

    Don't 
    read 
    Jane 
    Eyre! 

    Work 
    on 
    your 
    algebra 

    And 
    stand 
    out 
    in 
    the rain 

    And 
    give 
    your
    self 
    to 

    simple 
    pleasures 
    but 

    Never 
    play 
    card 
    games! 

    Meanwhile, 
    back 
    at 
    home 

    Not 
    in com
    munist 
    Russia 

    Well 
    only 
    on 
    my 
    headphones 

    We 
    plot 
    our 
    march 
    onto 
    the town 
    hall 

    And 
    if 
    we'd take 
    prisoners 

    Or simply 
    simper 
    at 
    those 

    fools 

    Verse 2

    Please 
    don't 
    tell 
    me 
    to 
    do 
    the 
    math 

    Please 
    don't 
    tell 
    me 
    to do 
    the 
    math 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 3
    Tonight 
    we're 
    gonna 
    smash 
    this 
    place 
    up 

    And 
    then 
    we're gonna 
    deck 

    it out 
    with 
    fairy 
    lights 
    till 

    We 
    are 
    content! 

    And then 
    we'll 
    maybe 
    drown 

    in 
    Dewey 
    decimals 

    But 
    leave 
    our 
    shoes 
    off 
    at 

    the 
    door 
    'cause 

    That 
    was 
    the 
    point! 

    Of 
    us 
    at 
    home 
    with 
    the moon 

    Pour
    ing 
    through 
    the 
    curtain

    Working 
    on 
    our 
    attitude 

    Towards 
    the second 
    hand 

    book 
    shop 
    employees 

    Read
    ing 
    the inscriptions 

    That 
    were 
    never 
    meant 
    for 

    their 
    eyes 

    Verse 4

    Please 
    don't 
    tell 
    me 
    to 
    do 
    the 
    math 

    Please 
    don't 
    tell 
    me 
    to do 
    the 
    math 

    Interlude 2



    Please 
    don't 
    tell 
    me 
    Verse 5

    to do 
    the 
    math 

    Please 
    don't 
    tell 
    me 
    to 
    do 
    the 
    math 

    Verse 6
    I'm 
    stitching 
    up 
    each 

    one 
    of 
    your 
    pockets 

    So 
    when 
    we 
    are 
    together 
    you'll 

    may
    be 
    look 
    a little 
    less 
    bored 

    I'm 
    sticking 
    your 
    fin

    gers 
    into 
    sockets 

    To kick
    start 
    your 
    little 
    heart 
    and 

    maybe 
    sleep 
    a tiny 
    bit 
    more 

    Oh 
    maybe 
    we should 
    read 
    more 
    into 

    the 
    books 
    that 
    we 
    adore 

    Perhaps 
    we should 
    drink 
    less 
    vitamin 

    And 
    now 
    I'm shouting 

    out 
    in 
    capital 
    letters 

    "I 
    will 
    throw 
    you 
    high 
    fives 
    if 
    you 
    keep 
    your 
    own 

    secret
    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.
