"Slide (Pride)" lyrics

[Verse 1: Goo Goo Dolls & Elmo]
Elmo, whisper in my ear
I really wanna hear
The things you did today
That stratified you
Elmo reached the highest shelf
He got dressed by himself
And Elmo wants to say
He's filled with pride, yeah

[Pre-Chorus: Goo Goo Dolls & Elmo]
When you've done the best you could
You feel really, really good
Yeah
You're feelin' that pride
Pride
Yeah, gotta feel that pride

[Verse 2: Goo Goo Dolls & Elmo]
You helped your mother bake a pie
You fell and didn't cry
You made your bed
And said your ABC's
Elmo learned to tie his shoe
He added two and two
Elmo drank up all his milk
And ate his peas

[Pre-Chorus: Goo Goo Dolls]
When you've done the best you could
You feel really really good
You're feelin' that pride
Hmmm, pride

[Chorus: Goo Goo Dolls & Elmo]
And you can be the monster that you dreamed you'd always be
Elmo's feelin' that nothing can stop him, yeah
Elmo, nothing is beyond you
So let those good thoughts fill your head
You are furry proud and red
Elmo, no one can top him

[Outro: Goo Goo Dolls & Elmo]
And he's so proud
Be the best that you can be
Elmo is so proud of me
