The plays of Shakespeare are thrilling, including Macbeth and King Lear
I will never be ready or willing to trash the great Bard's career
Some nineteenth century writers, claimed Will did not author those plays
Those scholarly tabloid inciters, sought another writer to praise
They shamefully came up with Bacon, might have done better with ham
Their goal was to readers awaken, to their plagiarizing sham
Sir Francis, it's true, was a smarty, was quite the “Pooh Bah” of his day
Did so many things that were arty, but couldn't be Shakespeare's valet
The Lord High Everything was “Pooh Bah”, of most things he kept abreast
Keeper of the Seal, Lord Chancellor, was Sir Bacon at his best
When knighted and addressed as a Sir, it helped him stand tall and erect
But he's managed my wrath to incur, by making the great bard suspect
With such brilliance did Shakespeare write, he was so wonderfully able
Not even Sir Francis, the Knight, would care to persist with their fable
