Some Fantastic - Barenaked Ladies

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 
we can use to re-adhere your lips to mine if you were here 
Chorus: 
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 be 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 are 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 
(Chorus) 
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 wanna be with me 
And if I wear it past your work, you'll see other guys are jerks 
Much like pheremones for flies, you will not avoid my eyes 
(Chorus) 
Bye bye, self-respect 
I haven't had much of it since you left 
I missed out on the best of you 
(x2) 
Bye bye (repeated)
