When I Paint My Masterpiece |
Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble |
Ancient footprints are everywhere |
You can almost think that you’re seein' double |
On a cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs |
Got to hurry on back to my hotel room |
Where I’ve got me a date with Botticelli’s niece |
She promised that she’d be right there with me |
When I paint my masterpiece |
Oh, the hours I’ve spent inside the Coliseum |
Dodging lions and wastin' time |
Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle, I could hardly stand to see 'em |
Yes, it sure has been a long, hard climb |
Train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory |
When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese |
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody |
When I paint my masterpiece |
Sailin' round the world in a dirty gondola |
Oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola! |
I left Rome and landed in Brussels |
On a plane ride so bumpy that I almost cried |
Clergymen in uniform and young girls pullin' muscles |
Everyone was there to greet me when I stepped inside |
Newspapermen eating candy |
Had to be held down by big police |
Someday, everything is gonna be diff’rent |
When I paint my masterpiece |
