When I paint my masterpiece

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’ through 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 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 

Last lot from me from District 5! If you haven't been down there yet - better get a wriggle on!

Endless Summer beach stroll...

Chloe had walked along the beach, mile after mile, the sun riding high in the sky, her feet pressing shallow imprints in the wet sand. The flipflops were no hindrance on her stroll, the feeling of the sand between her toes was just about her favourite thing in the world.  She would pause from time to time, picking up shells, marvelling as the softest tones of pinks, blues and browns merged, fading into creams and whites. Some, she would slip into her pockets, to add to her collection at home, others, she would skim into the waves, recycling the minute homes of the sea creatures for another generation under the sea.

The sun on her skin was hot as the thin high clouds scudded lightly out to sea. Waves crashing against the rocky outcrops and reefs in the cove were the soundtrack to her walk, adding a pounding rhythm to the soft tune she hummed as she walked along. Further along the shore she saw a group she knew, surfboards jammed into soft sand, watching the waves. Raising her hand to wave, the filpflops she carried clunked lightly together in her grip, showering her with falling grains of sand. Rolling her eyes at herself, she laughed softly, and ran along the waters edge to join her friends.

Depraved Nation is ramping up the heat for the return of their Endless Summer gridwide hunt! Nearly 100 stores - each with a free to buy hunt item; a hockey puck with a palm tree on it.
