Il testo della When i paint my masterpiece

Oh, the streets of rome are filled with rubble
Ancient footprints are everywhere
Well you could 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, 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
Those mighty kings of the jungle, i could hardly stand to see 'em
Well, it sure has been a long hard climb

The train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory
When i ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese
Someday, life will be sweet like a rhapsody
When i paint my masterpiece

So i left rome and i landed in brussels
On a plane so bumpy that i almost cried
Clergymen in uniform, yes and young girl pullin' muscles
Well, it should have been a long hard ride

Newspapermen eating candy
Had to be held down by big police
Someday, everything is gonna be different
When i paint my masterpiece, that's right

Someday, everything is gonna be different
When i paint my masterpiece
When i paint my masterpiece
