Paroles : When I Paint My Masterpiece (Live at Brendan Byrne Arena, East Rutherford, NJ, April 1, 1988)

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

Gotta hurry on back to my hotel room
Where I've got me a date with Botticelli's niece
She promised that she'd be there with me
When I paint my masterpiece

Oh, the hours I've spent inside the Colosseum
Dodging lions and wastin' time
Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle
I could hardly stand to see 'em
Well, it sure has been a long hard climb

Train wheels rollin' 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

I left Rome, landed in Brussels
On a flight so bumpy that I almost cried
Clergymen in uniform, young girls pullin' muscles
They cheered, happy when I got right

Newspapermen eating candy
Had to be held down by big police
Someday, everything gonna be different
When I paint my masterpiece

Someday, everything gonna be different
When I paint my masterpiece
When I paint my masterpiece
