 CI?m still thinking ?bout Delmo
Elmo five o?clock speEmcial

 CWhen I lay down my Dhead to go to bEmed

Didn?t say to come in
Where the hell have you been
I can see you?re excited
You can tell you?re invited
Justify your evil ways
Make up for lost days
Didn?t mean to close the door
When I threw you to the floor
Didn?t mean to close the door on my personal whore
Where do you fit in?
Where do you fit in?
You run out of expression
You let me make a suggestion
You?ve left a scratch on my face
I can see to this day
You?re no inocent man
Come and catch me if you can
Didn?t have the time of day
But I fucked him anyway
Did have the time of day to play
Where do you fit in?
Where do you fit in?
I?m still thinking ?bout elmo
Elmo five o?clock special
I?m still thinking ?bout you
A thousand ways to kill you
I?m still dreaming in pink
Gives me reason to think
When I lay down my head I?m still okay
When I lay down my head to go to bed
Where do you fit in?
Where the fuck have you been?
CHa ah oh oh oh
DHa ah oh oh oh
EmHa ah oh oh oh, ha ah oh oh oh
Where do you fit in?
Cause I?m still thinking about elmo
And where do you fit in?
And where do you fit in?
And where!!!
Ha ah oh oh oh....
Where, oh
Where, oh oh
C, D, Em...blah blah
