Ugly Kid Joe is a rock band which formed in Isla Vista, California, United States in 1989. The band's name is a parody of the band Pretty Boy Floyd. The band made a name for themselves in the early 1990s with their mix of satire and hard rock/metal sound. The band achieved two worldwide top ten hits with 1992's "Everything About You" and a 1993 cover of Harry Chapin's "Cat's in the Cradle".
The band released three albums, "America's Least Wanted" (1992), "Menace to Sobriety" (1995) and "Motel California" (1996) before disbanding in 1997.

artist: Ugly Kid Joe title: "Busy Bee" album: America's Least Wanted key: E/C#
tuning: ha ha ha... now I'm well aware that when ppl try and tab for a band who tune down their guitars, they still call the 3rd fret for example on a string tuned Eb as being G and not the note they're playing, Gb. Well, as it is one of my biggest pet peeves, I've decided that I'm going to depict the note played, and you can decide on how you want to tune your instrument. Bear in mind, this song incorporates the Eb HEAVILY... so, tune down, or move up 11/12 of an octave :)

I always hear the schoolbell ring Let the children dance and sing Just let us find what's been lost So many people get turned and tossed away
