Some Fantastic (Ivory And Ivory) - Lyrics by Barenaked Ladies


Lyrics
One day I will build a fountain
Drink and never grow old
Then I'll market an elixirthat will eliminate the common cold
Find your sickness on my list
Pay up front and make a wish
One day I will work with animals
All tests I'm gonna do
All my stuff's completely natural
And when we're done we'll boil 'emdown for gluethat we can use to re-adhereyour lips to mine if you were here
There's a lot I will never do:
Some fantastic, I know it's true
But none as much as my want to be with you
I can't stand to wait in the line long
So I build a new machine
It just measure up the distanceand then eliminates the folks between
One day i'll construct a satelliteand I'll name it after you'
Cause you were the greatest friend of allexcept for when you split my lip in two
To see the look upon your faceas i launch you into space
Bye-bye self-respect
I haven't had much of it since you left
I missed out on the best of you
Some day I will find the secretto your social chemistry
Then I'll ptint it on a t-shirtand it'll make you want to be with me
If I wear it past your workyou'll see other guys are jerks
Much like pheromones for fliesyou will nor avoid my eyes
