Special
D'Abruzzo Stephanie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Lucy]
I can make you feel
Special.
When it sucks to be you.
Let me make you feel
Special.
For an hour or two.
Your life's a routine
That repeats each day.
No one cares who you are
Or what you say.
And sometimes you feel
Like you're nobody,
But you can feel like
Somebody with me.

[Princeton]
Wow!

[Lucy]
Yeah, they're real.

When we're together
The earth will shake
And the stars will fall
Into the sea.
So come on, baby,
Let down your guard.
When your date's in
The bathroom,
I'll slip you my card.
I can tell just by looking
That you've got it hard
For me! for me!
For me! for me!
For me! for me!
I can tell just by looking




That you are especially
Hard for me!

I curse myself for not seeing Avenue Q when it first came out. The cast they have now is weak by comparison, especially the voice and puppeteer for Kate Monster. Stephanie D. owns.

Sanjuro Shinjitsu

You have got to be one of the funniest performers of all time. I snorted so many times during Jan the backpack my wife and I had to find out who that person was. Keep up the good work!

Tim Castro

Love it! You are just scary talented, Stephanie!

MacBarr Pup

Great! You should totally do more acting!

She also voices five pipes from the pipe organ from Sesame Street. 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20.

Um... first time was at the Museum of the Moving Image where I was doing a television puppetry workshop with John Tartaglia in 2011. I also saw her again at the Jerry Nelson tribute in 2012 which was also held at the M.O.T.M.I.
