Observe and Report movie - When I Paint My Masterpiece lyrics

rate me

Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble,<br>

Ancient footprints are everywhere.<br>

You can almost think that you're seein' double<br>

On a cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs.<br>

Got to hurry on back to my hotel room,<br>

Where I've got me a date with a pretty little girl from greece.<br>

She promised that she'd be right there with me<br>

When I paint my masterpiece.<br>

<br>

Oh, the hours I've spent inside the Coliseum,<br>

Dodging lions and wastin' time.<br>

Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle, I could hardly stand to see 'em,<br>

Yes, it sure has been a long, hard climb.<br>

Train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory,<br>

When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese.<br>

Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody<br>

When I paint my masterpiece.<br>

<br>

Sailin' 'round the world in a dirty gondola.<br>

Oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola!<br>

<br>

I left Rome and landed in Brussels,<br>

On a plane ride so bumpy that I almost cried.<br>

Clergymen in uniform and young girls pullin' muscles,<br>

Everyone was there to greet me when I stepped inside.<br>

Newspapermen eating candy<br>

Had to be held down by big police.<br>

Someday, everything is gonna be diff'rent<br>

When I paint my masterpiece. <br>
