Will:
Not. So. Fast

Nick:
Hello, Will. I knew you wouldn't go down without a fight

Will:
The top sir, nay, thou surely doth jest
I say on my honour here I doth protest

Nick:
Yawn
Rhyming couplet? That is so 1580’s

Will:
Oh yeah?
Well

Tap Break:

Will:
If you want to make it to the top
Then you're gonna have to go through me
Cause on the top is where I live
And I will not be giving up that easily
So there

Nick:
Oh man I have been waiting for this moment for so long
I'm gonna enjoy it when I knock you off your perch

Will:
Oh no you won't

Nick:
Oh yes I will

Will:
Oh no you won't

Nick:
Oh yes I will

Will:
Oh no you won't

Nick:
Oh yes I will

Will:
Oh no you won't
My accomplishments are much more accomplished than yours

Nick:
In your dreams
I am the best

Will:
You can't be the best because I am the best
I have written 12 plays and each one is a testament to my great skill
I am the Will
And I wrote the Taming of the Shrew and Richard III and Richard II and Henry's IV, V, VI
And Titus Andronicus
And oh did I forget Romeo and Juliet

Nick:
Well I have just written the thing that the critics are calling the greatest thing they've ever seen
The people are loving it
Can't get enough of it
Everyone, even including the Queen
She recently invited me to her castle where she knighted me
And privately she told me that you're not any good, not any good, not any good, not any good
And she told me that all of your plays make her vomit
And none of them's as good as my musical Omelette

C majorC

Will:
N.C.
Wait a minute
You wrote Omelette?

Nick:
Yes

Will:
  E MajorE                 A minorAm
I never thought that I would meet my equal
     G minorGm          C7C7      FF
But I concede that I've been bested by the best
B minorBm       E minorEm      A minorAm
Maybe we could partner on a sequel

Nick:
E minorEm       EbmEbm
Oh my, how the tide has turned
E minorEm
Let's review
   EbmEbm
What have we learned
   E minorEm
See, you were here
   EbmEbm
But now we've swapped
N.C.
