Bottom's Gonna Be On Top

No more Mr. Anonymous
No more world that is nick bottom-less
My name will be synonymous with being on the top

I can see it now
I'm the cat's me-ow
It's a hit, pow!
It's gonna be great, gonna be great
Everywhere I go
They will love me so
Hail my name

Oh, it's gonna be great, gonna be great
Master Bottom, you're such a wonderful writer
You really think so?
And your talent is talent beyond compare
Why thank you
You're a star, you are, and you couldn't be brighter
Well, now you're just embarrassing me!
You're a real visionary

Thank you Jesus and Hail Mary!
This bottom's gonna be on top
This bottom's gonna be on top
Man, I'm gonna sizzle
Man, I'm gonna pop
And this bottom's gonna be on top

This is heaven sent
Feeling confident
Money well spent
It's gonna be great, gonna be great
Throw a big parade
Praises will be made
Compliments paid
It's gonna be great, gonna be great

Me and baby are so eternally grateful
You're who I'm doing it for
Thank you for our cottage in the woods
You deserve it!

If gratitude were a food I'd have a big plateful
Nice metaphor, bro
You're the greatest
You da man
I really shouldn't say it
But yes I am!

This bottom's gonna be on top
This bottom's gonna be on top
Once I get goin', never gonna stop
Yeah, this bottom's gonna be on top

We are the royalty of the Renaissance writers
Now we're handing down the crown to you
You were a nobody but then overnight
You're someone better than the rest of us
Now you are the best of us

Not so fast!
Hello, Will, I knew you wouldn't go down without a fight
The top sir, nay, thou surely doth jest
I say on my honour here I doth protest
Yawn
Rhyming couplet? That is so 1580's
Oh yeah?
Well

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!

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

Oh, no you won't

Oh, yes, I will

Oh, no, you won't

Oh, yes, I will
Oh, no, you won't
Oh, yes, I will
Oh, no, you won't
My accomplishments are much more accomplished than yours

In your dreams
I am the best
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 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?

Well, I have just written the thing that the
Critics are calling the greatest thing they've ever seen
The people are lovin' 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

Wait a minute
You wrote Omelette?
Yes
I never thought that I would meet my equal
But I concede I have been bested by the best
Maybe we could partner on a sequel

Oh my, how the tide has turned
Let's review
What have we learned?
See, you were here
But now we've swapped
So kiss this bottom
I'm on the top

Yeah (he's on top) yeah, yeah (he's on top)
Right where I want to be!
(Wa-wa-wa-wa) yeah, this bottom's gonna be on top
(He's on top, he's on top)

Wa-wa-wa-wa yeah, this bottom's gonna be on top
Yeah, this bottom's gonna be on top
Yeah, this bottom's gonna be on top

You want us to write "Omelet"? Oh, I'm not so sure about this
Well, I am little brother
So raise a glass to "Omelet: The Musical"!
Bottoms up! (bottoms up)
Yeah, this bottom's gonna be on top!
