A-U-T-I-S-M

Lyrics

[sung over The Backstreet Boys' "Larger Than Life"]

Are you ready to party?

I've been high and feelin' like an outcast, all right
But let me tell you, I need some friends now, all right
'Cause all of this time I've, never been unknown

A-U-T-I-S-M, what does it mean
Silence and friends unseen
A few brains as well, that is autism
And that makes us seem special to you

I'm lookin' at you all and I see a rainbow, come on
You think I'm different in every way, come on
All of the times that I've earned honor roll!

A-U-T-I-S-M, what does it mean
Silence and friends unseen
A few brains as well, that is autism
And that makes us seem special to you

Ooooh oooh, oooh oooh

All of the time that I've never been unknown

A-U-T-I-S-M, what does it mean
Silence and friends unseen
A few brains as well, that is autism
And that makes us seem special to you

A-U-T-I-S-M, what does it mean
Silence and friends unseen
A few brains as well, that is autism
That makes us seem special
That makes us seem special
That makes us seem special to you
