		<description>It&#039;s not from an opera, but at least a musical:

&quot;Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.&quot;</description>

		<description>Notte e giorno non respirar
Per Alberto grasso nulla sa grandir
Piova e vento sopportar
Mangiar male e mal dormir.

Voglio far il gentiluomo verde
E non voglio più camminar
A piedi, non, non più!

Oh che caro galantuomo!
Vuol star dentro affamato,
Ed io far la sentinella!

Voglio far il gentiluomo verde
E non voglio più servir!

Gulfstream, si! A piedi, non!
E non voglio più servir!

Leporello, Don Giovani, Mozart
.......................................................
Day and night never breathing,
For fat Albert who is never satisfied,
Rain and wind to put up with,
Eating badly and badly sleeping.

I want to be a green gentleman,
And I don&#039;t want to walk anymore.
On foot, no, no more!

Oh what a chivalrous gentleman!
He wants to stay inside, he&#039;s famished,
And I am the lookout!

I want to be a green gentleman
And I don&#039;t want to serve anymore!

Gulfstream, yes!  On foot, no!
And I don&#039;t want to serve anymore!



......................................................................................................................................
Che faró senza Escalade
Dove andró senza il mio ben
Che faró
Dove andró
Che faró senza il mio giro pimpado.

Escalade, o Dio, risponde!	
Escalade! Ah, non m&#039;avvanza, Escalade!
più socorso, più Petrofina, più speranza
ne dal mondo, ne dal cel.

Orfeo ed Euridice, Gluck
.............................................
What will I do without my Escalade
Where will I go without my dearest
What will I do
Where will I go
What will I do without my pimped out ride.

Escalade, Oh, God, answer me!
Escalade!  Ah, nothing comes forth, Escalade!
No help, no Petrofina (gas), no hope
Neither from this world, nor from heaven.


..................................................................................................................................
Non so piu cosa son, cosa faccio,
Or di foco, ora sono di ghiaccio,
Ogni anidride carbonica cangiar di colore,      
Ogni anidride carbonica mi fa palpitar.       
Solo ai nomi d&#039;Alberto, di accreditamenti del carbonio,   
Mi si turba, mi s&#039;altera il petto,
E a parlare mi sforza di razionamento      
Un desio ch&#039;io non posso spiegar.   
Parlo d&#039;carbonio vegliando, 
Parlo d&#039;Alberto sognando,              
All&#039;acqua, all&#039;ombra, ai monti,
Ai fiori, all&#039;erbe, ai fonti,
All&#039;eco, all&#039;aria, ai venti.....                               
                                                 
Cherubino, Le Nozze di Figaro, Mozart
................................................................
I don&#039;t know any more what I am, what I&#039;m doing
Now I&#039;m fire, now I&#039;m ice,
Any carbon dioxide makes me change color,
Any carbon dioxide makes me quiver.
At just the names of Albert, of carbon credits,
My breast is stirred up and changed,
And a desire I can&#039;t explain
Forces me to speak of rationing. 
Awake I speak of carbon,
Asleep I speak of Albert,
To the water, the shade, the hills,
The flowers, the grass, the fountains,
The echo, the air, and the winds.......

		<description>&#039;Fried kin&#039;, what a gloriously appropriate collaborator.
OK, I know it&#039;s not pronounced that way.

There has to be a scene where we hear the Voice of Gore from within the &#039;Burning Bushes&#039;.  Moses Obama will surely have a key part.</description>

		<description>This will not be opera. 

It will be musical comedy. Well, probably not musical. And the comedy part will be unintentional. 

But it will bear the same relationship to opera as it does to reality.</description>
