When I was a boy of 10, I had a very special friend
|
Ed was kind, with good intent
|
But just a little different
|
|
Oh, special Ed
|
his Mama mama dropped him dropped him on his head
|
Now he's not so bright instead
|
He's a little bit special
|
Just a little bit... special
|
|
We'd play tag, and he'd get hurt
|
I'd play soldier, he'd eat dirt
|
I liked maths, and the spelling bee
|
Ed liked talking to a tree
|
|
Oh, special Ed
|
his Mama mama dropped him dropped him on his head
|
Now she keeps him (where?) in the shed
|
Cause he's a little bit special
|
Just a little bit... special
|
|
I ran track, hung out in malls
|
Ed ran headfirst into walls
|
I had girls and lots of clothes
|
Ed had names for all his toes
|
|
Oh, special Ed
|
his Mama mama dropped him 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... special
|
|
I thought college life was great
|
Ed could count from one to two
|
I liked people and the party scene
|
Ed was scared of the vacumcleaner
|
|
Oh, special Ed
|
his Mama mama dropped him dropped him on his head
|
Now he thinks he thinks he can drive his bed
|
Cause he's a little bit special
|
Just a little bit...
|
|
one day talking to special Ed
|
He grabbed a brick and he swung at my head
|
And as he laughed at me thats when I knew
|
That special Ed just made me special too
|
|
Now I laugh as I count bugs
|
I give strangers great big hugs
|
Next to me Ed is fine
|
Yeah he's a f---ing Einstein
|
|
Oh, Special Ed (and me)
|
Now we're not right in the head (you see)
|
Now we're not so bright instead
|
We're a little bit special
|
Just a little bit special
|
That f---er Ed made me special
|
Just a little bit
|
Just a little bit ... special
|
