When I was a boy of ten
I had a very best friend
Fred was kind with good intent
But just a little different
Oh special Fred
Momma dropped him on his head
Now he's not so bright instead
He's a little bit special
Just a little bit
We played tag
And he'd get hurt
I'd play soldier
He'd eat dirt
I liked math and the spelling bee
Fred liked talking to a tree
Oh special Fred
Momma dropped him on his head
Now she keeps him in the shed
Cause he's a little bit special
Just a little bit
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 Fred
Momma 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 he swung at my head
And as he laughed at me that's when I knew
That special Fred just made me special too
No-oh
Now I laugh as I count bugs
I give strangers great big hugs
Next to me Fred is fine
Yeah he's a fucking Einstein
On special Fred 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 bastard Fred made me special
Just a little bit
Just a little bit special
