Fratricide and Spirits by Robert Wynne and Jeffrey Williams Music: "Rainy Days and Mondays" by the Carpenters © 1998 Talking to myself and feeling cold I don't know what I'm to do Really wish I had a clue Walking around wearing a solemn frown Fratricide and Spirits always get me down What I saw would drive most 'round the bend My dead father said to me Son, you've gotta kill the king. But I don't know Which way I ought to go To be or not to be, I sure wish I could know Funny but it seems i'd know exactly what to do Don't know why i cant decide it If anyone suspects, they'll probably lock me safe away So I guess I'd better hide it Even my best friend thinks me insane But I knew the play's the thing I caught the concience of the king. Now that I'm sure Vengence is the only cure There's only one more act i'll be forced to endure Now I must go To calculate the final blow And lay Claudius to rest beneath the falling snow
This song was written because Jeff and I wanted to write a song based on Shakespeare (we were both English majors). This song was published in the Gafilk 2000 songbook.
