Shakespeare Song Parody: Glad You’re Tame
Friday, December 7th, 2012This is the 14th in a series of pop-music parodies for Shakespeare fans.
Enjoy!
Glad You’re Tame
sung to the tune of “Glad You Came”(With apologies to The Wanted, and all women…)
The sun comes up;
I say it’s true.
If I say “moon,”
It’s that for you.
That title “Shrew”
Will never be your name.
I’m glad you’re tame.You used to whine for me, whine for me;
You tried to fracture my spine for me, spine for me;
But then I made you fall in line for me, line for me;
And now you always behave fine for me, shine for me!Help me show off how,
How you’ve learned to know your place;
Place a little bet;
Bet you’ll win the race.
Race speedily out,
Out to where I call,
Call you out for all,
All to see I can make,
Make you glad you came.The sun comes up;
I say it’s true.
If I say “moon,”
It’s that for you.
That title “Shrew”
Will never be your name.
I’m glad you’re tame.I’m glad you’re tame.
