Минусовка «Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) – Rockaria».

 

Introduction.
-1-
Just got back from the downtown palais
Where the music was so sweet
It knocked me right back in the alley i'm ready,
Yea, yea, yea, 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 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.
-Refrain-
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.

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 just,
Meet me at the opera house at a quarter to three,'cos I'm ready,
Yea, yea, yea, I'm ready,
Woo, hoo, hoo, I'm ready, i'm gonna show you how to sing the blues.
-Refrain-
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.

(Far, far away the music is playing)

...Well we were reelin' and a rockin' all, through the night,
Yea we were rockin' at the opera house, until the break of light,
And the orchestra were playin', 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, runnin' in to join in song
Just to hear the opera singer, singin' rock & roll so pure,
I thought I saw the mayor there, but I wasn't really sure,
But it's, alright.
