Author Erik Didriksen has recast lyrics to about 100 songs into Shakespearean sonnets — complete with iambic pentameter, old English constructions and time-appropriate references. You'll never hear "Once in a Lifetime" or "99 Problems" the same way again.

Erik's book "Pop Sonnets" goes on sale Oct. 6.

Erik joins Dad Rock hosts Patrick Foster and Jim Lenahan on this Bonus Track.

Dad Rock is a USA TODAY music podcast, available on iTunes, SoundCloud, Stitcher and TuneIn. Full episodes post on Fridays. Bonus Tracks post in between.
