Picked this up somewhere along the way...

Steve
It's been one week since you looked at me
cocked your head to the side and said I'm angry.
Five days since you laughed at me
saying get that together come back and see me.
Three days since the living room
I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry

Ed
Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
As I make you stop, think
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman
I summon fish to the dish, although I like the Chalet
Swiss
I like the sushi 'cause it's never touched a frying pan
Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes
Big like Leann Rimes
Because I'm all about value
Bert Kampfert's got the mad hits
You try to match wits
You try to hold me but I bust through
Gonna make a break and take a fake
I'd like a stinkin achin shake
I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours
Gotta see the show, cause then you'll know
The vertigo is gonna grow
Cause it's so dangerous, you'll have to sign a waiver

Ed and Steve
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of taking off my shirt

Steve
It's been one week since you looked at me
Threw your arms in the air and said you're crazy
Five days since you tackled me
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realized it's not my fault not a moment too soon
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
And now I sit back and wait till you say you're sorry

Ed
Chickity China the Chinese chicken
You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'
Watchin X-Files with no lights on, we're dans la maison
I hope the Smoking Man's in this one
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting Frantic
Like Sting I'm Tantric Like Snickers, guaranteed to
satisfy
Like Kurasawa I make mad films
Okay I don't make films
But if I did they'd have a samurai
Gonna get a set of better clubs
Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs just so my
irons aren't always flying off the back-swing
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon
Cause that cartoon has got the boom anime babes
that make me think the wrong thing

Ed and Steve
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean? You soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of losing my shirt

Steve
It's been one week since you looked at me
Dropped your arms to your sides and said I'm sorry
Five days since I laughed at you
and said You just did just what I thought you were gonna
do
Three days since the living room
We realized we're both to blame, but what could we do?
Yesterday you just smiled at me
Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry

It's been one week since you looked at me

Cocked your head to the side


and said I'm angry

Five days since you laughed at me saying

Get that together come back and see me
Three days since the living room,


I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
Yesterday you'd forgiven me

But it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry

Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
As I make you stop, think
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman
I summon fish to the dish,

Although I like the Chalet Swiss
I like the sushi
'Cause it's never touched a frying pan

Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes
Big like Leann Rimes
Because I'm all about value

Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits


You try to match wits
You try to hold me but I bust through

Gonna make a break and take a fake

I'd like a stinkin, achin shake
I like vanilla, It's the finest of the flavors
Gotta see the show,
Cause then you'll know
The Vertigo is gonna grow


Cause it's so dangerous,

You'll have to sign a waiver

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of taking off my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me


Threw your arms in the air and said you're crazy
Five days since you tackled me
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realized it's not my fault not a moment too soon
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
And now I sit back and wait till you say you're sorry

Chickity China the Chinese chicken


You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'
Watchin X-Files with no lights on,

We're dans la maison


I hope the Smoking Man's in this one
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting Frantic
Like Sting I'm Tantric
Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy

Like Kurosawa I make mad films


Okay I don't make films
But if I did they'd have a samurai
Gonna get a set of better clubs
Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs

Just so my irons aren't always flying off the backswing


Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon
Cause that cartoon has got the boom anime babes

That make me think the wrong thing

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
You soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of losing my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me


Dropped your arms to your sides and said I'm sorry
Five days since I laughed at you and said
You just did just what I thought you were gonna do
Three days since the living room
We realized we're both to blame, but what could we do?
Yesterday you just smiled at me
Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry

It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry

One Week

It's been one week since you looked at me

Cocked your head to one side and said "I'm angry"


Five days since you laughed at me

saying "get that together, come back and see me"


Three days since the living room

I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
But it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry

Hold it now and watch the hoodwink As I make you stop, think
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman I summon fish to the dish,
Although

I like the Chalet suisse And I like the sushi 'cause it's never touched
a
frying pan. Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes Big like LeAnne Rimes
because I'm all about value, Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits, you try
to
match wits, you try to hold me but i bust through.
Gonna make a break and take a fake I'd like a stinkin' achin' shake I
like
vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours, Gotta see the show cause then
you'll know the vertigo is gonna grow 'Cause it's so dangerous, you'll


have
to sign a waiver

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad

Tryin hard not to smile though I feel bad


I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral

Can't understand what I mean? well you soon will


I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve

I have a history of takin off my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me

Threw your arms in the air and said "You're crazy"


Five days since you tackled me
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realized it's not my fault not a moment too soon
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
And now I sit back and wait till you say you're sorry

Chickety china, the chinese chicken, Have a drumstick and your brain
stops
tickin' watchin X-Files with no lights on, we're dans la maison I hope
the
smoking man's in this one. Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic, Like
Sting I'm tantric, like Snickers guaranteed to satisfy, Like Kurasawa I
make mad films, Okay I don't make films but if I did they'd have a
Samurai.
Gonna get a set a' better clubs Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs just
so
my irons aren't always flying off the backswing. Gotta get in tune with
Sailor Moon 'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes that make me
think the wrong thing.

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad

Tryin hard not to smile though I feel bad


I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean? You soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of losing my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me
Dropped your arms to your sides and said "I'm sorry"
Five days since I laughed at you and said
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do"
Three days since the living room
We realized we're both to blame, but what could we do?
Yesterday you just smiled at me
'Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry

Still be two days till we say we're sorry

Still be two days till we say we're sorry

I am 99.9% sure the following lyrics to Barenaked Ladies' "One Week" is
correct. But, then again, there could be some mistakes.

"One Week"

It's been one week since you looked at me

Cocked your head to the side
And said I'm angry


Five days since you laughed at me saying

Get that together come back and see me


Three days since the living room

I realized it's all my fault but couldn't tell you


Yesterday you'd forgiven me
But it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry

Hold it now and watch the hoodwink

You'll think you're looking at Aquaman
I summon fish to the dish

Although I like the Chalet Swiss
I like the sushi

'Cause it's never touched a frying pan


Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes

Big like Leann Rimes
Because I'm all about value
Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits
You try to match wits

You try to hold me, but I bust through


Gonna make a break and take a fake

I’d like a stinkin', achin' shake


I like vanilla, It's the finest of the flavors
Gotta see the show,
Cause then you'll know

The Vertigo is gonna grow


Cause it's so dangerous

You'll have to sign a waiver

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad

Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad


I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?

Well, you soon will


I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve

I have a history of taking off my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me

Threw your arms in the air and said you're crazy


Five days since you tackled me
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realized it's not my fault not a moment too soon
