Rockaria!

Weit, oops

Weit, weit in die Ferne

Man hort, man hort die Musik

Just got back from the downtown Palais

Where the music was so sweet, it knocked me right back in the alley

I'm ready, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm ready

Whoa, whoa, whoa, I'm ready and I'm really gonna rock tonight

Sweet little lady sings like a songbird

And she sings like the opera like you ain't never heard

But she ain't ready, no, no, no, she ain't ready

No, no, no, she ain't ready and she ain't gonna rock and roll

She's sweet on Wagner, I think she'd die for Beethoven

She loves the way Puccini lays down a tune

And Verdi's always creepin' from her room

Weit, weit in die Ferne

Man hort, man hort die Musik

Come on, I'll show you how to sing the blues, now, baby

Come on over, you got nothin' to lose

Are you ready? Hey, hey, hey, are you ready?

Ooh, ooh, ooh, are you ready? I wanna show you how to rock and roll

"Now listen here, baby," she said to me

"Meet me at the opera house at quarter to three"

'Cause I'm ready, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm ready

Woo, hoo, hoo, I'm ready, I'm gonna show you how to sing the blues

She's sweet on Wagner, I think she'd die for Beethoven

She loves the way Puccini lays down a tune

And Verdi's always creepin' from her room

Oh, far, far, away

The music is playin'

Well, we were reelin' and rockin' all through the night

Yeah, we were rockin' at the opera house until the break of light

And the orchestra was playin' all Chuck Barry's greatest tunes

And the singers in the chorus all got off on singin' blues

And as the night grew older, everybody was as one

People on the streets came runnin' in to join in song

Just hearin' the opera singers singin' rock and roll so pure

I thought I saw the mayor there but I wasn't really sure

But it's alright
