Rockaria!

Written by：Jeff Lynne

Weit hinter in die ferne

Man hört man höret die muzik

Just got back from the downtown palais

Where the music was so sweet

It knocked me right back in the alley

Yeah yeah yeah I'm ready

Wo wo wo I'm ready

And I'm really gonna rock tonight

Sweet little lady sings like a songbird

And she sings the opera like you aingt never heard

But she aingt ready

No no no she aingt ready

No no no she aingt ready

And she aingt 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 creeping from her room

Weit hinter in die ferne

Man hört man höret die muzik

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

Come on over you got nothing 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

Just meet me at the opera house at a 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 creeping from her room ooh

Far far away the music is playing

Well we were reeling and a rocking all through the night

Yeah we were rocking at the opera house until the break of light

And the orchestra were playing all chuck berry's greatest tunes

And the singers in the chorus all got off on singing blues

And as the night grew older everybody was as one

The people on the streets came running in to join in song

Just to hear the opera singer singing rock and roll so pure

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

But it's alright oooh
