  • 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' thru 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.
