Rome

I've got the blueprints for a great city
That only I desire to build
But I know it's glamour and complexity
Will supply us with kicks and thrills
And a laugh and a half and a buzz that is bottomless
I can guarantee it, or my name isn't Romulus
But right now, our town is as developed as a foetus
We could make something great if you would just play Remus

When in Rome
Do as the Romans do

But it's hard when it's seven fucking fifty-three BC
And the township of Roma is nowhere to be seen
But if you take my hand and grab a shovel in the other
We can dig the foundations of what could be our Rome

I don't want a stingy mud shack village
I want temples and shops, aqueducts and pillars
I wanna hear your laugh and put your smiles where I can see them
And if we need to fight, I'll even build the Colosseum

When in Rome
I'll buy the world's greatest pizza for you

But it's hard when it's seven fucking fifty-three BC
And the township of Roma is nowhere to be seen
But if you take my hand and grab a shovel in the other
We can dig the foundations of what could be our Rome

When in Rome
Do as the Romans do

But it's hard when it's seven fucking fifty-three BC
And the township of Roma is nowhere to be seen
But if you take my hand and grab a shovel in the other
We can dig the foundations of what could be our Rome

Yeah, Rome
