  • Verse 1
    Sneaky, 
    greedy, 
    money 
    seeking 

    Always 
    peeping, 
    fucking 
    creeping 

    Got 
    it 
    on 
    the 
    down 
    low 

    So 
    you 
    think 
    you 
    always 
    squeaky 

    What 
    if 
    had 
    told 
    your 
    mother 

    Her 
    son 
    was 
    cruel 
    mother
    fucker? 
    Ah 

    It's 
    not 
    just 
    me, 
    it's 
    everybody 

    Who 
    thinks 
    that 
    you're 
    fucking 
    ugly 

    When 
    you 
    come 
    and 
    hurt 
    us 

    Just 
    so 
    you 
    can 
    get 
    your 
    money 

    Forced 
    to 
    follow 
    the 
    leader 

    Who's 
    being 
    possessed 
    by 
    demons 

    Pre-chorus 1
    I've 
    tried 
    to 
    make 
    you 
    listen 

    But 
    you 
    won't, 
    it's 
    your 
    way, 
    right? 

    Killing 
    kids 
    all 
    day 
    and 
    night 

    Prescription 
    pills 
    and 
    online 
    fights 

    Shooting 
    at 
    the 
    angels 
    while 

    Claiming 
    you're 
    the 
    good 
    guy 

    All 
    you 
    want 
    is 
    cash 
    and 
    hype 

    Fuck 
    our 
    dreams 
    and 
    that's 
    not 
    right 

    Chorus 1
    The 
    principal, 
    oh, 
    oh 

    Oh, 
    where's 
    the 
    principle? 

    Oh, 
    where's 
    the 
    principle? 

    Oh, 
    where's 
    the 
    principle? 
    Oh, 
    oh 

    Oh, 
    where's 
    the 
    principle? 

    Verse 2
    Oh, 
    where's 
    the 
    principle? 

    Complicated, 
    overrated 

    You're 
    fixated 
    and 
    elated 

    By 
    the 
    separation 

    in 
    this 
    place 
    that 
    you've 
    created 

    Fuck 
    all 
    of 
    your 
    rules 
    and 
    guidelines 

    You 
    shouldn't 
    even 
    be 
    on 
    the 
    sidelines 

    Can't 
    you 
    see 
    that 
    we're 
    all 
    hurtin'? 

    If 
    you're 
    not 
    teaching, 

    we're 
    not 
    learnin' 

    Excuse 
    me, 
    how 
    much 
    are 
    you 
    earnin'? 

    Pre-chorus 2
    I've 
    tried 
    to 
    make 
    you 
    listen 

    But 
    you 
    won't, 
    it's 
    your 
    way, 
    right? 

    Killing 
    kids 
    all 
    day 
    and 
    night 

    Prescription 
    pills 
    and 
    online 
    fights 

    Shooting 
    at 
    the 
    angels 
    while 

    Claiming 
    you're 
    the 
    good 
    guy 

    All 
    you 
    want 
    is 
    cash 
    and 
    hype 

    Fuck 
    our 
    dreams 
    and 
    that's 
    not 
    right 

    Chorus 2
    The 
    principal, 
    oh, 
    oh 

    Oh, 
    where's 
    the 
    principle? 

    Oh, 
    where's 
    the 
    principle? 

    Oh, 
    where's 
    the 
    principle? 
    Oh, 
    oh 

    Oh, 
    where's 
    the 
    principle? 

    Outro 1
    Oh, 
    where's 
    the 
    principle? 

    You 
    don't 
    know 
    the 
    pain 

    that 
    you 
    are 
    causing 

    Yeah, 
    your 
    actions 
    hurt, 
    so 
    do 
    your 
    words 

    The 
    more 
    you 
    try 
    to 
    fuck 
    us 
    over 

    We 
    will 
    be 
    there 
    yelling 

    at 
    your 
    front 
    door 

    I've 
    tried 
    to 
    make 
    you 
    listen 

    But 
    you 
    won't, 
    it's 
    your 
    way, 
    right

    • 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.
