Toreador Song

Toreador Song is the popular name for the aria "Votre toast, je peux vous le rendre" ("Your toast, I can return it to you"), from the opera Carmen, composed by Georges Bizet to a libretto by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy. It is sung by the bullfighter (French: toréador) Escamillo as he enters in act 2 and describes various situations in the bullring, the cheering of the crowds and the fame that comes with victory. The refrain, "Toréador, en garde", forms the middle part of the prelude to act 1 of Carmen. The song is sung by Martin Prince while he is a jail in Sweet Seymour Skinner's Baadasssss Song. The song is also spoofed in "Bart the Genius"
