when i was
a boy of 10
i had a very best friend
fred was kind
w good intent
but just a little different
oh special fred
mama dropped him on his head
now hes not so bright instead
hes a little bit special
just a little bit
we'd play tag
and he'd get hurt
i'd play soldier
he'd eat dirt
i liked math and spelling bees
fred liked talking to a tree
oh special fred
mama dropped him on his head
now she keeps him in the shed
cause he's a little bit special
i ran track
hung out in malls
fred ran headfirst into walls
i had girls and lots of clothes
fred had names for all his toes
oh special friend
mama dropped him on his head
now he thinks he's a piece of bread
cause he's a little bit special
just a little bit
one day talking to special fred
he grabbed a brick and swung at my head
as he laughed at me
that's when i knew
that special fred had just made me special too
now i laugh as i count bugs
i give strangers great big hugs
next to me
fred is fine
yeah, he's a f*ckin eistein
oh special fred and me
now we're not right in the head, ya see
now we're not so bright instead
we're a little bit special
just a little bit special
that bastard fred made me special
just a little bit
just a little bit...special
