When I Paint My Masterpiece - Demo

Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble
Aged footprints are everywhere
You can almost think that you're seein' double
On a cold, dark night by the Spanish Stairs
Got to hurry on back to my hotel room
Where I've got me a date with pretty little girl from Greece
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
Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle, I could hardly stand to see 'em
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 sound like a rhapsody
When I paint my masterpiece

Sailin' 'round the world in a dirty gondola
Sure wish I hadn't sold my old Victrola
Ain't nothing like to that good old rock 'n' roll

I left Rome and pulled into 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 different
When I paint my masterpiece
