Текст (слова) песни: Barenaked Ladies - Some Fantastic (ivory And Ivory)

 
One day I will build a fountain 
Drink and never grow old 
Then I’ll market an elixer 
That 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 the tests I’m gonna do 
All my stuffs completely natural 
And when we’re done 
We’ll boil ‘em down for glue 
 
That we can use to re-adhere 
Your lips to mine if you were here 
 
There’s a lot I will never do 
Some fantastic I know it’s true 
But not as much as my want to be with you 
 
I can’t stand to wait in line long 
So I built a new machine 
It just measures up the distance 
And then eliminates the folks between 
 
One day I’ll construct a sattelite 
And I’ll name it after you 
Cause’ you were the greatest friend of all 
Except for when you split my lip in two 
 
To see the look upon your face 
As I launch you into space 
 
There’s a lot I will never do 
Some fantastic I know its true 
But not as much as my want to be with you 
 
Bye bye self respect 
I haven’t had much of it since you left 
I missed out on the best of you 
 
Someday I will find the secret 
To your social chemistry 
Then I’ll print it on a t-shirt 
And it’ll make you want to be with me 
And if I wear it past your work 
You’ll see other guys are jerks 
 
Much like pheromones for flies 
You will not avoid my eyes 
 
There’s a lot I will never do 
Some fantastic I know its true 
Not as much as my want to be with you 
 
Bye bye self respect 
I haven’t had much of it since you left 
Even mice are bereft of you 
I missed out on the best of you 
 
Bye bye self respect 
I haven’t had much of it since you left 
I missed out on the best of you 
 
Bye bye bye (REPEAT)
