  • Verse 1
    You always 
    see the future 

    by looking 
    backwards, okay? 


    Let's look backwards. 

    Rock and 
    roll. 

    1950, rock 
    and roll is born. 

    It's an awkward 
    youth 

    with a sense of 
    humor, 

    a lot of raw 
    emotion, 

    and a terrible 
    reputation 

    because 
    it's a juvenile delinquent. 


    Ten years later, 
    it grows a conscience, 


    and it's getting the bad 
    rap. 

    It goes, hey, look what you're 
    doing with the 
    war, 

    you mongoloids 
    with the 
    long hair 

    and all this 
    stuff, you know. 

    So in 
    the 70s, it 
    goes suburban. 

    Corporate rock 
    comes 

    in, it blends 
    out

    The 80s 
    arrive, 

    everybody bends 
    over, 

    you know. 

    Falwell pulls a string, 

    the enema comes 
    out, 

    the entire 
    industry goes, 

    hey, 
    thanks a lot, we 
    needed that, 

    okay? 

    Broadcasters have bent 
    over. 

    the 
    record companies 
    bent over, 


    the songwriters 
    either out 
    of ignorance, 

    they 
    weren't in
    formed of 
    what was 
    happening, 


    or they just wanted 

    to keep their mouth shut 

    to protect their 
    interests. 

    Nobody said 
    anything. 

    And meanwhile, 

    these women 
    with the collars 
    up to here, 

    who 
    sit there like that, 

    and with 
    husbands in high 
    places, 

    are going 
    around doing 
    the most 
    outrageous things 

    with 
    your rights. 

    You know, they chose 

    the record industry 

    because it's very 

    easy to make 
    fun of people 

    who 
    look and act different 
    than you. 

    They 
    love it that somebody 

    from Motley 
    Crue 

    has got hair 
    out like this 

    and makeup 
    and this stuff, 

    know, 

    and they show pictures 
    of, 

    look at this. 

    Do you want 
    your child to, 

    know, that. 

    They've been 
    doing that since 

    the beginning. 

    They did 
    it with Elvis Presley. 

    And before that, 
    they did it with 
    the fact 

    that 
    a lot of the performers 
    were black. 

    Do you 
    want your children 

    listening 
    to music 
    by Negroes? 


    You know, it took 
    years before they 

    could even get that 
    kind of music 

    on 
    white people's radio 
    stations. 

    And 
    then white people 
    suddenly said, 

    hey, 
    big money here, 

    boom, 
    rock and roll. 

    But, 
    what they're doing 
    now is 
    very, 

    it's 
    critical at this 
    point now 

    because unless 
    somebody stands 
    up and says, 

    this has 
    got to stop now, 

    the 90s are not 
    go
    ing to be 
    bent over, 

    they're going to 
    be lying down. 


    They're either going 
    be lying down 


    or they're going to be 
    walking like 
    this, 


    dressed like the 
    people in Red 
    China.

      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.
