William didn't know the answer

Why cant I do this?  
Don't I want this? enough    
I am playing this game    
where I am slowly making progress    
but so slowly    
that my second thoughts are catching up with me.    
Am I an honest player?    
Do I have virtuous    
I can play out?    
Cards in my sleeve    
that are stained of sweat.    
Now I can't use them, because I waited too long -    
sub-screams of regret.      
Will I ever wander in the great heights?    
and feed on wild bees and their honey?    
And forget about atms    
and what to do with my money.      
---  
To be or not to be    
that's the million dollar question    
William didn't know the answer    
so he sat and wrote God a letter.    
The letter was well formulated      
with courtly praises for good measure    
so he stapled the thing onto a dove    
once he'd wrote the address "Heaven".      
He prayed and bowed and knelt to God    
and with time he grew impatient    
so at last on christmas day it came    
signed with "return to sender".      
The disregard it struck him hard    
and he didn't quite get the gesture    
so he threw the phrase into a play    
hoping for fan mails from know-betters.      
     
You're probably wondering about now    
just what this here is all about    
Well it's something    
Yeah    
It's something...
