[Verse 1]
Wake up early in Karakatu, Alaska
We put our masks on to welcome the dawn
Call the huskies and collide into their fur
Fragrant in the overcast

[Verse 2]
Don't be a bitter man, it could be worser
A slave in Belarus or a mat in Japan
Its cold as shit, always that way
Sometimes it gets to 99 below

Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah

[Chorus]
(Whoa wha-oh)
I got some lovely phantasies
(Whoa wha-oh)
I got some lovely phantasies
And you got some lovely phantasies

[Post-Chorus]
Tear off the top, let your memory pop
Its running, running, running, running away

[Verse 3]
After hours of fishin' through holes in the ice we drilled
You told me that you had a plan
Lets emigrate south to Sarasota
Where the marlin fishing never lets up
Until you want it to end

(White men go, white men go)

[Verse 4]
White men go to pieces in the tropics
I bet that is a topic
You'd rather not broach
Later on I'm gonna turn the heat to ten
I'll thaw your foolish dreams away, ay

[Chorus]
(Whoa wha-oh)
I got some lovely phantasies
(Whoa wha-oh)
I got some lovely phantasies
And you got some lovely phantasies

[Post-Chorus]
Tear off the top, let your memory pop
Its running, running, running, running away
