[00:24.47]I am an Opera Singer
[00:29.99]I stand on painted tape
[00:34.51]It tells me where I'm going
[00:39.61]And where to throw my cape
[00:45.32]I call my co-stars "brother"
[00:50.22]I call my co-stars "knave"
[00:55.30]I play both good and evil parts
[00:59.99]I sing to Verdi's grave
[01:07.26]And every single morning
[01:12.66]By 10 AM I'm dressed
[01:18.34]My rehearsals last for hours and hours
[01:23.21]With diligence I have been blessed
[01:28.78]Some people they call me monster
[01:32.81]Some people they call me saint
[01:37.62]My talent feeds my darker side
[01:42.54]Yet no one will complain
[01:49.94]I am an opera singer
[01:55.92]I sing in foreign lands
[02:00.76]I've sung for kings in Europe
[02:05.58]And emperors in Japan
[02:10.97]🎵
[02:30.63]And after each performance
[02:36.87]People stand around and wait
[02:40.65]Just to tell me that they love my voice
[02:46.09]Just to tell me that I'm great
[02:51.53]I am an opera singer
[02:57.16]I will sing when you're all dead
[03:00.67]I sing the mountains crumbling apart
[03:06.56]I sing what can't be said
[03:13.66]I am an opera singer
[03:18.71]I sing in foreign lands
[03:24.18]Most people seem to know my name
[03:29.23]Or at least know who I am
[03:34.71]🎵
