Paul Austin Kelly - Opera Rap Lyrics
Well, I like Rossini and I like PucciniAnd I like to listen while I'm eatin' linguiniI like opera, man, and it's flippin' my switchMake my thumbs itchMake my bum twitchI like William Tell and Don GiovanniI think opera plots are really funnyI think opera rules cause it makes me giggleMy tonsils jiggleChin hairs wiggleI found a stack of old opera records called LPsThey don't look nothing like my CDsI try to stick'em in my Sony but they won't goGotta get a turntable for my stereoI like listening to opera on Radio ThreeEvery afternoon while I'm sipping my teaTell that little man to come and sing it for meIl mio tesoro intantoSing it Tonto! If you want toI like to see this one soprano with a heaving chestTight little dress, hair a messShe's squealing something in Italian, anybody's guessFollie, follie!I'm so weird, I'm so weird, I'm so weird, I'm so...I'm so weird, I'm so weird, I'm so weird, I'm so...Now there's Pavarotti and Carreras and DomingoAre they tryin' to be another John, Paul, George and Ringo?When they're singing out at Wembley I get wobbly kneesWomen toss their knickers at'em when they sing high C's.Ridi, Pagliacco, sul tuo amore infranto...Well, Carmen's she's a fox but then there's AidaShe's 16 tons! What the heck they feed her?Old Radames had better be a wealthy dudeThe way she's gobblin' up a mess of fine Italian foodAm I telling all my friends about my high-brow habits?When you find a piece a heaven, well you‘d better grab it!I got another dirty secret I hold onto tightI like watching Leslie Garrett on the box at nightI'm so weird, I'm so weird, I'm so weird, I'm so...I'm so weird, I'm so weird, I'm so weird, I'm so...I'm so weird, I'm so weird, I'm so weird, I'm so...
