    • Verse 1
    A cripple walks 
    amongst you, all 

    you 
    tired 
    human 
    be
    ings 

    He's got all the things 
    a cripple has 
    not, 

    work
    ing arms 
    and 
    legs 

    And vital 
    parts fall from 
    his system and dissolve 

    in the Scottish 
    rain 

    Vitally, he 
    doesn't miss the 

    news, too fucked 
    up to care 

    Verse 2
    Is that 
    you 
    in front of me 

    Coming back 
    for 
    even more 

    of exactly 
    the 
    same? 

    You must 
    be a 
    masochist 

    To love a modern 
    leper 
    on his last 
    leg 

    On 
    his last 
    leg 

    Verse 3

    I crippled 
    your 
    heart a 
    hundred times 
    and still 

    can
    't work 
    out 
    why 

    See, I've 
    got this 
    disease 
    that I 
    can't shake 

    and I'm 
    just rattling 
    through 
    life 

    Well 
    this is 
    how we 
    do things 
    now, 

    this is 
    how the 
    mod
    ern 
    stay 
    scared 

    So 
    I cut out 
    all the 
    good stuff, 

    I cut off 
    my foot 
    to 
    spite 
    my 
    leg 

    Is 
    that 
    you 
    in 
    front 
    Verse 4
    of me 

    Coming back 
    for even 
    more 

    of exactly 
    the same? 

    You must 
    be 
    a 
    masochist 

    To love a modern 
    leper 
    on 
    his 
    last leg 

    Well 
    I am 
    ill 
    but I'm 
    not 
    dead 

    And 
    I don't 
    know which 

    of these 
    I 
    prefer

    Because 
    that limb 
    which 
    I have lost 

    It was 
    the only 
    thing 
    holding 

    me up

    Hold
    ing 
    me up 

    I'm 
    Verse 5
    lying 
    on the 
    ground 

    now and you're 
    walking 
    through the 
    only 
    door 

    I 
    have lost my 
    eyesight 
    like I 

    said I would 
    but 
    I still 
    know 

    That 
    is you 
    Verse 6
    in 
    front of 
    me 

    And 
    you are back 
    for even 

    more 
    of exactly 
    the same 

    Are 
    you 
    a 
    masochist to 
    love a modern 

    leper 
    on 
    his 
    last leg? 

    You're 
    not 
    ill and 
    I'm not 
    dead 

    And 
    doesn't 
    that make 

    us 
    the 
    perfect 
    pair? 

    Just 
    you 
    and me, 
    we'll start 
    again 

    And 
    you can tell 
    me all 
    about 

    what 
    you 
    did today 

    What 
    you did 
    today

      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 🙂

      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.
