Sing Verdi Very Loud
By Richard Perlmutter

When you’re an opera star
With a large repertoire
How do you please the crowd?
Sing Verdi very loud

You may appear aloof
But you must raise the roof
To keep the public wowed
Sing Verdi very loud

Study your libretto
Start with Rigoletto
Raise up your falsetto
Sing Verdi very loud

La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la louder now

Sing Verdi very loud
Mezzos who’ve made a name
Tenors of wealth and fame
One and all they have vowed
Sing Verdi very loud

Do what the divas do
Shatter a glass or two
Your voice is well endowed
Sing Verdi very loud

Study your libretto
Start with Rigoletto
Raise up your falsetto
Sing Verdi very loud
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la louder now
Sing Verdi very loud
