    Verse 1

    That 
    gorilla 
    you're 
    dancing 
    with 

    May 
    not have 
    too 
    long 
    to live 

    He's 
    putting 
    his hands 

    in the 
    wrong 
    places 

    It's 
    time 
    to rearrange 
    his 
    face 

    He's 
    gonna 
    dance 
    with 
    me instead 

    And I'm 
    gonna 
    tap 
    dance 
    on his 
    head 

    Don't 
    tempt 
    me, 
    Verse 2
    don't 
    tempt 
    me, 

    don't 
    tempt 
    me 

    I'm 
    half 
    way 
    out of 
    my seat 

    Verse 3
    He's 
    got the 
    looks, 
    he's 
    got the 
    lolly 

    Driving 
    me clean 
    off 
    my trolley 

    Doing 
    the 
    jitterbug, doing 
    the jive 

    Doing 
    the 
    shimmy, 
    snakes 
    alive 

    That's 
    not a 
    dance, 
    that's 
    S 
    E 
    X 

    Ban 
    that 
    couple, 
    certificate 
    X 

    Don't 
    tempt 
    me, 
    Verse 4
    don't 
    tempt 
    me, 

    don't 
    tempt 
    me 

    I'm 
    half 
    way 
    out of 
    my seat 

    Verse 5

    Oh, 
    I'm a 
    patient 
    man, 

    but it's 
    out 
    of hand 

    Verse 6
    If there's 
    one 
    thing 
    that I 
    can't 
    stand 

    Get 
    your 
    mittens 
    off 
    my 
    gal 

    Or 
    you'll 
    end 
    up as 
    mincemeat, 
    pal 

    I've 
    got 
    friends, 
    mean 
    sons 

    They've 
    got 
    knives, 
    chains, 
    guns 

    Gas 
    grenades, 
    knuckle-dusters 

    Lazy 
    Lazy 
    Susans, 
    blockbusters 

    Verse 7
    Don't 
    tempt 
    me, 
    don't 
    tempt 
    me, 

    don't 
    tempt 
    me 

    I'm 
    half 
    way 
    out 
    of my seat, 

    Interlude 1
    oh 






    Verse 8
    I'm 
    sitting 
    here 
    calm 
    as I can 

    While you 
    polish 
    the 
    floor 

    with 
    an
    other 
    man 

    I'm 
    not 
    mad, 
    I'm a 
    cuddly 
    toy 

    Just 
    keep 
    me 
    away 
    from a 
    laughing 
    boy 

    You 
    say 
    he's a 
    relative, 
    some 
    hope 

    If he's 
    your uncle, 
    I'm 
    the Pope 

    Don't 
    tempt 
    me, 
    Verse 9
    don't 
    tempt 
    me, 

    don't 
    tempt 
    me 

    I'm 
    half 
    way 
    out of 
    my seat, 

    Outro 1
    oh

      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

      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.
