“Special Spice” Song Lyrics

Come on in! I’m glad you made it!
You’re all my friends. Let me just say this:
The only thing required is to be true
to the very unique thing that makes you, you.

Toss your talent in like making gumbo.
You stir it all in to make the perfect combo.
Nothing is wasted. It all gets used
like when we play together, we just can’t lose.

It’s a joyful celebration!
You don’t need an invitation.
It’s joyful; now everyone can see
your very special spice makes us complete.

There’s hidden treasure here in the bayou.
Keep yourself open; life can float right by you.
It may surprise you what you can find
underneath the surface with an open mind.

It’s a joyful celebration!
You don’t need an invitation.
It’s joyful; now everyone can see
your very special spice makes us complete.

Sometimes it’s hard to believe that the very thing
we were looking for was right here all along.
Let’s not waste any more time doubting what’s inside.
Everyone can sing the song!

Come on, everybody!

It’s a joyful celebration!
You don’t need an invitation.
It’s joyful; this band just can’t be beat
because your special spice makes us—
because your unique spark makes us—
because your special spice makes us complete.
Because your special spice makes life complete.
