    • Verse 1
    73 
    years before 

    the advent 
    of the christian 
    era, 

    As rome 
    was taking 
    over 

    any land 
    within reach, 

    Setting 
    up 
    proxy 
    governmnents in the 

    conquered lands, 

    There 
    lived one 
    such 
    man given 

    just 
    such 
    a job. 

    Gaius 
    verres. 
    go. 

    Interlude 1




    A 
    praetor 
    held a position 
    which 
    Verse 2

    operated 
    on 
    trust. 

    He was 
    to govern 
    instead 

    of the emperor 
    himself. 

    It 
    was an 
    easy 
    easy 
    privilege 
    to abuse. 

    And verres 
    did so. 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 3
    He 
    was the governor 
    of agrigentum 

    which we now 
    know as sicily. 

    And 
    he stole 
    everything 
    that wasn't 
    nailed 
    down, 


    Took improper 
    advantage 

    of 
    other men's 
    wives. 

    The list 
    goes on. 
    trust me. 

    Cicer
    o 
    wrote it 
    all down. 

    Verse 4


    At syracuse 
    verres 
    welcomed 

    a band 
    of pir
    ates. 

    They 
    all 
    drank 
    and 
    danced 
    and 

    sang 
    on the 
    shore, 

    And when 
    the husband 
    of 
    one of 

    verres's paramours 

    Came 
    bring
    ing a 

    fleet of boats 
    with 
    him, 

    Veri
    us, clever, 
    if diabolical, 

    gave 
    him a 
    job. 

    And 
    enlisted 
    the pirates 
    to 
    burn 
    the 
    whole 

    Interlude 3
    fleet 
    down. 


    Verse 5
    The boats 
    burned 
    in the 
    sicilian 
    harbor 

    The flames 
    rose 
    hundreds 

    of 
    feet 
    into the 
    air 

    We 
    stood on 
    the 
    shore 

    watching 
    them 
    burn we 
    stood 

    On 
    the 
    shore, 
    we 
    heard the 
    old 

    songs. 
    hey!

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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 🙂

      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.
