Lyrics
You are special, you're the only one
You're the only one like you
There isn't another in the whole wide world
Who can do the things you do
Because you're special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way
Oh, you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way
You're important, oh, you really are
You're the only one of you
This world is better, just because you're here
You should know that we love you
Oh, you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way
Oh, you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way
Everyone in his or her own way
You are special, you're the only one
You're the only one like you
There isn't another in the whole wide world
Who can do the things you do
'Cause you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way
Oh, you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way
You're important, oh, you really are
You're the only one like you
The world is better, just because you're here
You should know that I love you
'Cause you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way
Oh, you are special, special
Everyone is special
Everyone in his or her own way (Everyone?)
Everyone in his or her own way

Trivia
- In the last line of the chorus, each character uses their own pose, which is unique to them and is worked into the choreography of the song, as in the above picture. These poses generally do not change over time, with a few exceptions.
- Beginning in the Season 2 episode Picture This!, Everyone is Special was reharmonized from the 1991 rendition used in Barney in Concert as well as in Season 1. Since Season 4 episode A Different Kind of Mystery, the new instruments are used not compared to Barney in Concert.
- In "A Very Special Delivery!", Barney also sings a lullaby version of the song to Tosha's new brothers.
- Season 8 is the only season not to have this song.
