When I was, a boy of ten
I had a very best friend
Fred was kind, with good intent
But just a little, different
Ohhh, special Fred
Mama dropped him, on his head
Now hes not so bright instead
Hes a little bit special
Just a little bit
We played tag, hed get hurt
Id play soldier, hed eat dirt
I liked math and spelling bee
Fred liked talking to a tree
Ohhh, special Fred
Mama dropped him on his head
Now she keeps him, in the shed
Cause hes a little bit special
Just a little bit
I ran track, hang out in malls
Fred ran head first, in-to walls
I had girls, and lots of clothes
Fred had names for all his toes
Ohhh, special Fred
Mama dropped him, on his head
Now he thinks hes a piece of bread
Cause hes a little bit special
Just a little bit
Bridge:
One day talking to special Fred
He grabbed a brick and he swung at my head
And as he laughed at me thats when I knew
That special Fred just made me special toooo
Now I laugh as I count bugs
I give strangers great big hugs
Next to me, Fred is fine
Yeah hes a f---ing Einstein
Ohhh, special Fred (and me)
Now were not right in the head (ya see)
Now were not so bright instead
Were a little bit special
Just a little bit special
That bastard Fred made me special
Just a little bit
