Some fantastic

One day I will build a fountain
Drink and never grow old
Then I´ll market an elixir
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 stuff´s 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 none 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 satellite
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 it´s true
But none 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
Some day 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
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 it´s true
But none 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
Drink and never grow old
Then I´ll market an elixir
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 stuff´s completely natural
And when we´re done we´ll boil ´em
