Verse 1
A

One time in London,

I'd gone out for a walk

Past a place called Hyde Park

where people talk

'Bout all kinds of different gods,

they have their point of view

To anyone passing by,

that's who they're talking to
Verse 2
A

There was someone on a platform

talking to the folks

About the TV god and all

the pain that it invokes

"It's too bright a light" he said,

"for anybody's eyes

If you've never seen one it's

a blessing in disguise"
Verse 3
A

I moved in closer, got up on my toes

Two men in front of me were

coming to blows

The man was saying something 'bout

children when they're young

Being sacrificed to it while lullabies
Verse 4

are being sung
A


"The news of the day is on all the time
G

All the latest gossip, all the latest rhyme
A

Your mind is your temple,

keep it beautiful and free

Don't let an egg get laid in it
Em
G
A

by something you can't see"
Verse 5
A


"Pray for peace!" he said,

you could feel it in the crowd

My thoughts began to wander but

his voice was ringing loud

"It will destroy your family,

your happy home is gone

No one can protect you from
Interlude 1

it once you turn it on"
A

Verse 6
A

"It will lead you into some

strange pursuits

Lead you to the land of

forbidden fruits

It will scramble up your head and
G

drag your brain about
A

Sometimes you gotta do like Elvis did
Interlude 2

and shoot the damn thing out"
A

Verse 7
A

"It's all been designed" he said,
G

"to make you lose your mind
A

And when you go back to find it,

there's nothing there to find"

"Every time you look at it,

your situation's worse

If you feel it grabbing out for you,
Verse 8

send for the nurse"
A


The crowd began to riot and they

grabbed hold of the man

There was pushing,

there was shoving and everybody ran

The TV crew was there to film it,

they jumped right over me

Later on that evening,
A

I watched it on TV
Outro 1

(You're better than that)
A

  • 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.
