The Ostrich of the Opera
A Song Parody by Brian “Arkle” Webber
Based on “Phantom of the Opera” by Andrew Lloyd Webber

Female:
In game he flapped to me
With lance he came
That knight which calls to me
And speaks my name
And do I game again?
For now I find
The ostrich of the opera is there,
Inside my mind

Knight:
Save eggs again with me
Our strange duet
My power over you
Grows stronger yet
And though you flap from me
to glance behind
The ostrich of the opera is there
Inside your mind

Female:
Those who have seen your beak
Draw back in fear
I am the lance you bear

Pterodactyl:
It's me they hear!

Both:
My/Your platform and my/your lance
In one combined
The ostrich of the opera is there
inside my/your mind

Chorus:
Is that the ostrich of the opera?
Beware the ostrich of the opera

Knight:
In all your Ataris you always knew
That man and mystery

Female:
Were both in you

Both:
And in this lava pit
Where night is blind
The Ostrich of the opera is here/there

Female:
Inside my mind

Knight:
Sing, my Angel of Platforms!

Female:
He's there,
the Ostrich of the Opera . .
