| Song | The Death of Ferdinand de Saussure |
| Artist | The Magnetic Fields |
| Album | 69 Love Songs, Pt. 3 |
| 作词 : Merritt | |
| I met Ferdinand de | |
| Saussure On a night like this | |
| On love he said "I'm not so sure I even know what it is No understanding No closure It is a nemesis You can't use a bulldozer To study orchids" | |
| He said... | |
| So we don't know anything | |
| You don't know anything | |
| I don't know anything about love | |
| But we are nothing | |
| You are nothing | |
| I am nothing | |
| Without love | |
| I'm just a great composer | |
| And not a violent man | |
| But I lost my composure | |
| And I shot | |
| Ferdinand | |
| Crying "it's well and kosher to say you don't understand but this is for Holland-Dozier-Holland" | |
| His last words were | |
| We don't know anything [etc] | |
| His fading words were | |
| We don't know anything [etc] |
