Couldn't Bear To Be Special Lyrics - Singles - Prefab Sprout

Bo bo bee, bo bee 

Bo bo bo bee, bo bee, bo 

I couldn't bear to be special 

I couldn't bear, couldn't bear 

I couldn't bear, right? 

Bo bee, bo bee, bo 

So don't look at me and say 

That I'm the very one, who makes 

The cornball things occur 

The shiver of the fur 

Don't expect so much of me 

I'm just an also ran, there's a mile 

Between the way you see me 

And the way I am 

So, don't stare at me that way 

Of course it gives me pride 

But I won't take on the risk 

Of letting down the sweet sweet side 

Did you mean to humble me? 

So you did it unsuspectingly 

Oh words are trains, for moving past 

What really has no name 

Bo bo bee, bo bee, bo 

I couldn't bear to be special 

I couldn't bear, couldn't bear 

So, don't look at me and say 

That I'm the very one 

Who makes the cornball things occur 

The shiver of the fur, right? 

Bu bu pa pa 

Bu bu pa pa 

Bu bu pa pa
