  • Verse 1
    Whatever 
    happened 
    to 
    childhood? 

    We're 
    all 
    scared 
    of 
    the 
    kids 

    in 
    our 
    neighborhood 

    They're 
    not 
    small, 

    charming 
    and 
    harmless 

    They're 
    a vi
    olent 
    bunch 
    of 
    bas

    tard 
    little 
    shits 

    And anyone 
    who 
    looks 

    younger 
    than 
    me 

    Makes 
    me 
    check 
    for 
    my 
    wallet, 

    and 
    my phone 
    and 
    my 
    key

    And 
    I'm 
    tired 
    of 
    being 
    tired 
    out 

    Always 
    being 
    on 
    the 
    lookout 

    for thieving 
    git

    Verse 2
    We're 
    all 
    wondering 
    how 
    we 

    ended 
    up 
    so 
    scared 

    We spent 
    ten 
    long 
    years 

    teach
    ing 
    our 
    kids 
    not 
    to 
    care 

    And 
    that 
    there's 
    no 
    such 
    thing 

    as 
    so
    ciety 
    any
    way 

    And 
    all 
    the 
    rich 
    folks 
    act 
    sur
    prised 

    When 
    all 
    sense 
    of 
    community 
    dies 

    But 
    you 
    just 
    closed 
    your 

    eyes 
    to 
    the 
    other 
    side 

    Of 
    all 
    the 
    things 
    that 
    she 
    did 

    Thatcher 
    fucked 
    the 
    kid

    Verse 3
    And it seems 
    little 
    bit 
    rich 
    to 
    me 

    The 
    way 
    the 
    rich 
    only 

    ever 
    talk 
    of 
    charity 

    In 
    times 
    like 
    the seventies, 

    the 
    broken 
    down 
    economy 

    Meant 
    even 
    the 
    upper 
    tier 

    was 
    needing 
    some 
    help 

    But 
    as 
    soon 
    as 
    things 
    look 
    brighter 

    Yeah 
    the 
    grin 
    gets 
    wider 
    and 

    the 
    grip 
    gets 
    tighter 

    And 
    for 
    every 
    teenage 

    tracksuit 
    mugger 

    There's 
    guy 
    in 
    a suit 
    who 
    wouldn't 
    lift 

    finger 
    for 
    anybody 
    else 

    Verse 4
    We're 
    all 
    wondering 
    how 
    we 

    ended 
    up 
    so 
    scared 

    We 
    spent 
    ten 
    long 
    years 

    teach
    ing 
    our 
    kids 
    not 
    to 
    care 

    And 
    that 
    there's 
    no 
    such 
    thing 

    as 
    so
    ciety 
    any
    way 

    And 
    all 
    the rich 
    folks 
    act 
    sur
    prised 

    When 
    all 
    sense 
    of 
    community 
    dies 

    But 
    you 
    just 
    close 
    your 

    eyes 
    to 
    the 
    other 
    side 

    Of 
    all 
    the 
    things 
    that 
    she 
    did 

    Thatcher 
    fucked 
    the 
    kid

    Verse 5
    You've 
    got 
    generation 

    raised 
    on 
    the welfare 
    state 

    En
    joyed 
    all 
    it's 
    benefits 

    and 
    did 
    just 
    great 

    But 
    as 
    soon 
    as 
    they 
    were 
    settled 

    as 
    the 
    richest 
    of the 
    rich 

    They 
    kicked 
    away 
    the 
    ladder, 

    told 
    the 
    rest 
    of us 
    that 
    life's 
    bitch 

    Verse 6

    And it's 
    no 
    surprise 
    that 

    all 
    the 
    fuck-ups 

    Didn't 
    Did
    n't 
    show 
    up 

    until 
    the 
    kids 
    had 
    grown 
    up 

    But 
    when no 
    one ever 
    smiles 

    or 
    ever 
    helps 
    a stranger 

    Is 
    it any 
    fucking 
    wonder 
    our 

    society's 
    in 
    danger 
    of 
    col
    lapse? 

    Verse 7
    So 
    all 
    the 
    kids 
    are 
    bastards 

    But 
    don't 
    blame 
    them, 
    yeah, 

    they 
    learn 
    by 
    example 

    Blame 
    the 
    folks 
    who 
    sold 
    the 

    future 
    for 
    the 
    highest 
    bid 

    That's 
    right, 
    Thatcher 
    fucked 
    the 
    kid

    • 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.
