[Spoken: NIGEL] (Well, that's not gonna happen because everybody I know says that he is the greatest writer that England has ever known [Chorus 4]: NICK] And that's another thing I hate about Shakespeare Is all that twits who Bloviate about Shakespeare And how they prattle on About his great accomplishments Well la-di-da-di-da And once they start the gushing There's no stopping them and then it's [Chorus 5]: NICK] Blah-blah-blah-blah-blah Shakespeare And he walks in it's Dum-de-dum-ta-da Shakespeare He's holding court and they say "Will, you're such a genius and Your writing is divine 'A rose by any other name' Is such a clever line" And they're all "ooh" and he's all "stop" And they're all "yay" and I'm all "*retch*!" And I'm really getting sick of it And oh, oh, oh [Chorus 6]: NICK (MALE ENSEMBLE)] Oh, I hate Shakespeare (I think by now, we sort of) (Know you hate Shakespeare) Shmakespeare! The way he feigns humility When all he does is gloat The way he wears that silly, frilly Collar 'round his throat [Outro]: NICK (MALE ENSEMBLE)] The poster child for why No one should ever procreate Let me make a shorter list And I will give it to you straight Every little thing about Shakespeare Is what I hate (Hates, he hates) (He clearly surely, really, truly) (Hates Shakespeare) [Spoken: NIGEL] Don't hate! lyrics: https://genius.com/Wayne-kirkpatrick-god-i-hate-shakespeare-lyrics Chords mostly from: https://chordify.net/chords/god-i-hate-shakespeare-something-rotten-hope-kutsche
