God, I hate Shakespeare
But when I sit and really
Contemplate Shakespeare
I guess I hate the fact that
He is everything I ever
Dreamed that I could be
I mostly hate the way he makes me
Feel about... me

(spoken)
'Cause the truth is

(sung)
It wouldn't be that
Bad to be Shakespeare
In fact, I'd give my left
Nad to be Shakespeare
If I could only have
One tiny little smidgen
Of his notoriety
It would relieve me of the pressures
Of responsibility

I've gotta make it happen
Gotta find that pot of gold
If there was just some way to know
Just what the future... holds
(spoken)
What the future holds!
