    Verse 1
    I'm 
    an English 
    boy 

    I was 
    brought 
    up right 

    Hold 
    me 
    down 

    And 
    will 
    bite 

    know 
    no 
    fear 

    I serve 
    with 
    joy 

    I'm 
    proud 
    to 
    be 
    here 

    An English 
    boy 

    Verse 2
    feel 
    like 
    a stray 
    dog 

    Blurred 
    like 
    a movie 

    You say 
    you've 
    come 
    to 

    ar
    rest 
    me 

    But you're 
    just 
    trying 
    to test 
    me 

    I'm bored 
    with 
    your 
    prejudice 

    Spreading 
    like 
    a fever 

    Your 
    promises 
    to 
    train 
    me 

    Are just 
    at
    tempts 
    to 
    restrain 
    me 

    Verse 3
    I'm 
    an English 
    boy 

    Precisely 
    made 

    Pin 
    me 
    down 

    I am 
    not 
    afraid 

    show 
    no 
    fear 

    will serve 
    with 
    joy 

    I'm 
    proud 
    to 
    be 
    here 

    An English 
    boy 

    Verse 4
    Use 
    me like 
    headline 

    Cut 
    pieces 
    to 
    pieces 

    I'm 
    black 
    on 
    the 
    tube 
    line 

    Red 
    on 
    the touch-line 

    Freezing 
    Freez
    ing 
    up 
    the future 

    Stopping 
    every 
    stopwatch 

    You say 
    we're 
    moving 
    like 
    an 
    oil 
    slick 

    Thicker 
    than 
    a house 
    brick

    I'm 
    Verse 5
    an English 
    boy 

    I was 
    brought 
    up 
    right 

    If 
    you 
    raise 
    your 
    dress 

    Then I 
    will 
    bite 

    My 
    voice 
    is 
    clear 

    I got perfect 
    poise 

    Good to 
    be 
    down 
    here 

    With all 
    the English 
    boys 

    And 
    I don't 
    know where 
    am now 
    Verse 6


    Or where 
    I'm gonna 
    go 

    I just 
    keep going 
    round 
    and round 

    on the 
    circle 
    line 

    Like some 
    demented 
    kind 

    cummuta 

    Trying to avoid 
    paying 
    for my 
    ticket 

    I'm 
    lost 
    soul 

    I read 
    about 
    myself 
    in 
    the newspapers 

    I'm 
    a pig 

    I'm 
    thug 

    I've 
    got 
    nowhere 
    to go 
    but 
    down 

    Verse 7

    Feel like 
    I'm 

    kicking 
    at 
    dead 
    man 

    Kicking 
    in 
    the 
    chorus 

    I'm broken 
    by 
    hatred 


    While politicians 
    just 
    ignore 
    us 

    You never 
    gave 
    me any 
    value 

    You 
    didn't 
    give me 
    any 
    reason 

    There's 
    no 
    tools 
    and 
    no 
    toys 

    For 
    any 
    English 
    boys 

    I'm 
    an 
    Verse 8
    English 
    boy 

    I was 
    brought 
    up 
    right 

    Hold 
    me 
    down 

    And I 
    will 
    bite 

    know 
    no 
    fear 

    I will 
    serve 
    with 
    joy 

    I'm 
    proud 
    to 
    be 
    here 

    An English 
    boy 

    Verse 9

    I'm 
    an English

    I'm an 
    English

      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.
