grateful dead - when i paint my masterpiece (live) lyrics
[verse 1]
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 she’d be right there with me
when i paint my masterpiece
[instrumental break]
[verse 2]
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
yes, 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, life will be sweet like a rhapsody
when i paint my masterpiece
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
so i left rome, and i landed in brussels
on a flight so bumpy that i almost cried
clergymen in uniform, yes, and young girls pullin’ muscles
when 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, that’s right
someday, everything gonna be different
when i paint my masterpiece
when i paint my masterpiece
