"Special" is a song by Ashnikko that was digitally released on April 26, 2019 through Parlophone Records as the first single of her third extended play (EP), Hi It’s Me, being the second track in the project.
The demo version was leaked on November 26, 2024.
Background[]
In May 2019, to promote her new EP, Ashnikko made a billboard in London saying "You're not special". She posted a video of the location where the billboard was located, and at some points she played the instrumental of the song.[1]
Theme[]
“Special” is an upbeat electro-pop banger that plays with the idea of being independent and emotionally detached from the guy you’re sleeping with.
Ashnikko assumes the role of a dominant female that is almost mocking the fuckboys she encounters and the music video emphasizes that point even more as she is seen judging male strippers.
Lyrics[]
[Intro]
Yo
What, what, what
[Chorus]
You're not special, it's not cute
Only one strike, then you get the boot
There was potential in you
You should get "Fuckboy" tattooed
I don't give a fuck
I have more fun on my ones
Hit and run
Eat my pussy like it's lunch
[Verse 1]
Tell me why I need you over the next
The only thing you seem to give me is sex
You look dumb now that I've come to my senses
Your love is not impressive
Tongue kissin' in my king size bed
You can give me some goodbye head
You look dumb now that I've come to my senses
Your love is not impressive
[Pre-Chorus]
You wish, you wish I missed you
Back the fuck up, I dismiss you
You better stock up on tissues
Jacking off to all my pictures
You wish, you wish I missed you
Back the fuck up, I dismiss you
You better stock up on tissues
Jacking off to all my pictures
[Chorus]
You're not special, it's not cute
Only one strike, then you get the boot
There was potential in you
You should get "Fuckboy" tattooed
I don't give a fuck
I have more fun on my ones
Hit and run
Eat my pussy like it's lunch
[Verse 2]
You don't seem to see what a cliché you are
Bad boy in your best friend's car
Supernova wanna kill my star
Teardrops on your Fender guitar
Left your dumb ass on read
I'm too healthy, wealthy, well fed
I see better dick up ahead
But I like how you look when you really beg
[Pre-Chorus]
You wish, you wish I missed you
Back the fuck up, I dismiss you
You better stock up on tissues
Jacking off to all my pictures
You wish, you wish I missed you
Back the fuck up, I dismiss you
You better stock up on tissues
Jacking off to all my pictures
[Chorus]
You're not special, it's not cute
Only one strike, then you get the boot
There was potential in you
You should get "Fuckboy" tattooed
I don't give a fuck
I have more fun on my ones
Hit and run
Eat my pussy like it's lunch
You're not special, it's not cute
Only one strike, then you get the boot
There was potential in you
You should get "Fuckboy" tattooed
I don't give a fuck
I have more fun on my ones
Hit and run
Eat my pussy like it's lunch
Eat it up
[Intro]
Yo
What, what, what
[Chorus]
You're not special, it's not cute
Only one strike, then you get the boot (Goodbye)
There was potential in you
You should get "Fuckboy" tattooed
I don't give a fuck
I have more fun on my ones
Hit and run (Goodbye)
Eat my pussy like it's lunch (Eat it up)
[Verse 1]
Tell me why I need you over the next
The only thing you seem to give me is sex
You look dumb now that I've come to my senses
Your love is not impressive (No are not, no are not)
Tongue kissin' in my king size bed
You can give me some goodbye head (Goodbye)
You look dumb now that I've come to my senses (You're dumb)
Your love is not impressive
[Pre-Chorus]
You wish, you wish I missed you
Back the fuck up, I dismiss you
You better stock up on tissues
Jacking off to all my pictures
You wish, you wish I missed you
Back the fuck up, I dismiss you
You better stock up on tissues
Jacking off to all my pictures
[Chorus]
You're not special, it's not cute
Only one strike, then you get the boot
There was potential in you
You should get "Fuckboy" tattooed
I don't give a fuck
I have more fun on my ones
Hit and run
Eat my pussy like it's lunch (Eat it up)
[Verse 2]
You don't seem to see what a cliché you are
Bad boy in your best friend's car
Socialite, you're a DJ booth star
Teardrops on your Fender guitar
Left your dumb ass on read
I'm healthy, I'm well fed (I don't need him)
I see better dick up ahead
I-I might throw it back if he really begs
[Pre-Chorus]
You wish, you wish I missed you
Back the fuck up, I dismiss you
You better stock up on tissues
Jacking off to all my pictures
You wish, you wish I missed you
Back the fuck up, I dismiss you
You better stock up on tissues
Jacking off to all my pictures
[Chorus]
You're not special, it's not cute
Only one strike, then you get the boot (Goodbye)
There was potential in you (In you)
You should get "Fuckboy" tattooed
I don't give a fuck (I don't want him)
I have more fun on my ones (I don't want him)
Hit and run (I don't need him)
Eat my pussy like it's lunch (Eat it up)
Baby, you're not special, it's not cute
Only one strike, then you get the boot (Goodbye)
There was potential in you
You should get "Fuckboy" tattooed
I don't give a fuck (I don't want him)
I have more fun on my ones (I don't want him)
Hit and run (I don't need him)
Eat my pussy like it's lunch
Eat it up
