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
