    Verse 1

    Locked 
    in 
    a 
    room 
    full 
    of 
    words 

    I'm 
    a one- 
    eyed 
    midget 
    with 
    a curse 

    The 
    simpleton 
    who 
    sweetly 
    smiles 

    At 
    his 
    young 
    lover 
    now 
    beguiled 

    The 
    sycophantic 
    morons 
    lied 

    At Romeo, 
    who 
    is 
    the bride, 
    let's 
    ride 

    Verse 2
    Stoned 
    as 
    I 
    walk 
    down 
    the 
    hall 

    The ad 
    men 
    wait 
    to 
    hear 
    the curse 
    and 
    call 

    The 
    angels 
    scream 
    in 
    discontent 

    As 
    to 
    the river 
    they 
    are 
    lent 

    The 
    actors 
    bow 
    and 
    pay 
    the 
    rent 

    We cover 
    them 
    in 
    cold 
    cement 

    Let's 
    swing 
    for 
    the 
    crime 

    Everyone 
    in 
    double- 
    time 

    Verse 3
    And we 
    hope 
    that 
    you 
    had 
    a good 
    time 

    Yeah, 
    smile 
    as 
    you 
    sign 
    on 
    the 
    line 

    Because 
    life 
    on 
    your knees 
    can 
    be 
    fun 

    Sur
    prised 
    now 
    you're 

    not 
    the only 
    one 

    Verse 4
    Led 
    like 
    a lamb 
    into 
    this 
    gloom 

    Yeah, 
    Freud 
    is 
    in 
    a 
    back 
    room 
    with his 
    goons 

    Now 
    they've 
    got 

    new experiments 

    The metal 
    groans, 
    the limbs 
    are 
    rent 

    The 
    an
    ti- 
    heroes 
    mock 
    dissent 

    We market 
    now 
    by 
    mass 
    consent 

    We swing 
    for 
    the crime 

    Interlude 1
    Everyone 
    in 
    double- 
    time 








    Verse 5
    Scream 
    like 
    you'll 
    burst 
    if 
    they 
    cry 

    Is 
    changed 
    by 
    the words 
    that 
    you 
    learn 

    But 
    Jack 
    the Ripper 
    is 
    inside 

    And 
    Moriarty 
    has 
    imbibed 

    They 
    live, 
    they marry, 
    all 
    the while 

    We 
    laugh 
    and have 
    them 

    circumcised 

    Verse 6

    And we hope 
    that 
    you 
    had 
    a good 
    time 

    Yeah, smile 
    as 
    you 
    sign 

    on 
    the 
    line 

    Because 
    life 
    on 
    your 
    knees 
    can 
    be 
    fun 

    Are 
    you 
    glad 
    that 
    you're 
    not 
    the only 
    one?

      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.
