Garbage performs “Special”

…..Drew Barrymore
…..Garbage

Drew Barrymore: Ladies and gentlemen – Garbage!

Garbage: [ singing ]
“I’m living without you
I know all about you
I have run you down into the ground
Spread disease about you over town.

I used to adore you
I couldn’t control you
There was nothing that I wouldn’t do
To keep myself around and close to you.

Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know
But I’ve run out of patience
I couldn’t care less.

I…
I…

Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know

I used to amuse you
I knew that I’d lose you
Now you’re here and begging for a chance
But there’s no way in hell I’d take you back.

Do you have an opinion?
A mind of your own?
I thought you were special
I thought you should know
But I’ve run out of patience
I’ve run out of comments
I’m tired of the violence
I couldn’t care less.

I’m looking for a new
I’m looking for a new
I’m looking for a new
I’m looking for a new

We were the talk of the town
We were the talk of the town
We were the talk of the town
We were the talk of the town.

I thought you were special
I thought you were special
I thought you were special
I thought you were special.”
