Opera lyrics meme

Idea nicked from [livejournal.com profile] glitterboy1

Opera lyrics. Guess the opera. Simple really.

1. "With tushes far exceeding those that Venus' huntsman slew"

2. "Malo, malo, in an apple tree"

3. "Wait! Don't touch her yet"

4. "His exercise is not with men but killing boys"

5. "Let us devise torments! He killed his mother"

6. "The world is poor and man's a shit"

7. "There are black birds in the world so why not black men too?"

8. "Show us the way to the next whisky bar"

9. " Tender, lovely leaves of my beloved plane"

10. "Hear me! Hear a tender husband's bitter lament"

When push comes to shove, I'm impressed with how little I really know about - or recognize - operas. I've been going to them all my life, listening to them vaguely on occasion, and never really focusing on them in any particular way.
