Literature synonym
Some of us have read his plays
And been like What the hell is this?
But take your time with every - every line
And you soon begin to get the gist
Well, what to know about the man
He led a pretty decent life
He made a living with his pen
Married Annie H. his darling wife
What people love about Shakespeare
Is how well he turn-a-phrase
Make us feel the deepest things
In tragicomic ways
It’s not by luck we still read him
Instead of so much other junk
And so the light will not go dim
We play the William Shakespeare Funk
