Madonna Does Shakespeare

(lr) = (let ring)


Robbie: On this particular week, 
Madonna said she wanted to do 
Shakespeare.
        Wil and Adam wanted to hear 
the word \"forsooth\" in a song ten 
times.
        As for Tripod, they just do 
it for the music, man.

Scod:   One, two, three, four-sooth!

    F            A#            Gm
something to say about it.
                    D#             
A# (stop)
        And it goes something like

Tripod: I worked hard to be a star,
                     A#         
        Who do these young folks 
            Gm
think they are?
             A#              D#   
        If Nicole Kidman can sing,
      C#

                        F#      A#

        A#       Gm              
Yon:    Eight muscle men surround
D#       A#      F
 me as I descend the stairs,

        And play Henry I Vee.
