Super Furry Animals - The Roman Road Lyrics
I was raised on a Roman road
You could argue that a film we saw
Where the plane was a child to the
Rich above her cuts away her soul
Where the low-flying jets with their heads for highs
Looking at the valley below
All the cars and the trucks they just go go go
Roman road
It's a little pitstop on the road to Rome
The Roman road
It's a line to the past and a road to Rome
The Roman road
It's a little pitstop on the road to Rome
All the cars and the trucks they just go go go
(Scheming and a-dreaming there is reason to be living)
When we talked to the mountain goats
I could tell that they understood
That the universe is flat
And trees are made of wood
Staring at the nebula
I plant my root to distant fruit
Flying my kite up high
To stop those Fokkers flying by
On the Roman road
It's a little pitstop on the road to Rome
The Roman road
It's a line to the past and a road to Rome
The Roman road
It's a little pitstop on the road to Rome
The Roman road
It's a line to the past it just go go go
(Scheming and a-dreaming there is reason to be living)
The Roman road
It's a little pitstop on the road to Rome
The Roman road
It's a line to the past it just go go go
On the Roman road
It's a little pitstop on the road to Rome
The Roman road
All the cars and the trucks they just go go go
(Scheming and a-dreaming there is reason to be living)
On the Roman road
(Scheming and a-dreaming there is reason to be living)
The Roman road
(Scheming and a-dreaming there be reason to be living)
On the Roman road
(Scheming and a-dreaming there is reason to be living...)

Super Furry Animals The Roman Road Comments
Orgasmically impressed. I like to tell people this is phish
I traveled the Roman Road for my Highschool Latin class in 99’. Great vistas!
Nice photos and well choreographed
Amazing band, quality song. The EXT. US version of Rings Around The World with 7 B-sides (tradewinds, edam anchorman, happiness is a worn pun etc..) is in my opinion the greatest album ever. I'd eat my own feet, to be the 6th Super Furry Animal.
Stu Taylor I totally dig what you're saying. Gods.
Just lay back on a midsummers day and let this song take you where no other song can reach.
Oh yeah.. have just ordered my expanded edition of Ring Around The World - the third time i've bought the album - with the wicked second disc containing 7 extra tracks , including this gem. It's gonna be a happy Xmas indeed! SFA OK!!!!!
I have fond memories of hitch-hiking on this road about 15 years ago. A van with french no. plates picked me up. But inside were about 7 or 8 welsh people, boys and girls, who were having a bit of a party. Alcohol, bongs etc. I ended up going about 30 miles past my destination and having to hitch-hike back very very stoned. But it was a nice day!
I'd read somewhere where gruff had said that this song sampled Captain Beefheart but this is more than a sample. So yes, you have blown my mind
