Opera Star lyrics - Collective Soul

(originally by Neil Young)

Some things never change

They stay the way they are

So your girlfriend slammed the door shut

In your face tonight, but that's alright

Then she took off to the opera

With some highbrow from the city lights

Well, you grew up on a corner

You never missed a moonlit night

Some things never change

They stay the way they are

You were born to rock

You will never be an opera star

You were born to rock

You will never be an opera star

So you stay out all night

Getting fucked up in the rock 'n' roll bar

And you never get tired

'Cause your drugs are in a little jar

You were born to rock

You will never be an opera star

Some things never change

They stay the way they are

I was born to rock

So your girlfriend slammed the door shut

In your face tonight, but that's alright

Then she took off to the opera

With some highbrow from the city lights

Well, you grew up on a corner

You never missed a moonlit night

Some things never change

They stay the way they are

You were born to rock

You will never be an opera star

You were born to rock

You will never be an opera star
