Paroles de Opera Singers

Well first you gotta speak right says the guy at the door As he give me the directions to the 2nd floor Where a girl looking sassy with a smile on her face Says you must be mistaken, this ain't the right place But it's alright, got a ticket But it's looking like it's gonna be a very sticky wicket 'Cos the bow-tie in the corner with his nose in the air Says there's a right way and a wrong way And a short way and a long way uptown And a right way to go about it And what's the world coming to When a night out at the opera's like a day out at the zoo Chorus: And if you don't mind I was just about leaving I can't stand being in the air that you're breathing I don't mind telling you you're so full of fiction And opera singers have terrible diction Now in this conversation there's the music man Who bought himself a reputation with a government grant And when he comes on special I try to keep my head But I just gotta, I just gotta, I just gotta see red Say what's the matter fella, don't let it spoil your night You only got invited 'cos you got the accent right You think you're sitting pretty, your fingers on the brass And you stand there looking silly with your finger in your glass We don't want your kind round here We don't think you fit round here So why don't you stay outside Pay your tax and subside (chorus) (instrumental break) We don't want your kind round here We don't think you fit round here So why don't you stay outside Pay your tax and subside
