Lyrics

Something Special (ver. 1) He said you blew more than his mind Now I feel so stupid sometimes Casting my pearls before swine I'll take all of you one-at-a-time I've got an interview with ABC The Dalai Lama and me I thought we had something special I thought we had something special One-thousand miles from sea level I thought we had something special He said you blew more than his mind Now I feel so stupid sometimes Casting my pearls before swine I'll take all of you one-at-a-time I've got an interview with ABC The Dalai Lama and me I thought we had something special I thought we had something special One-thousand miles from sea level I thought we had something special I'm wilting like lavender In December, in December I thought we had something special I thought we had something special One-thousand miles from sea level I thought we had something special

Something Special (ver. 6) I thought I lay with a goddess In a bed of frozen flowers I thought a cure had been found For every wound and every bug I thought that there would be no suffering The final slug had been shot I thought we had something special I thought we had something special One-thousand miles from sea level I thought we had something special
