"We're A Couple Of Misfits" is a song originally featured in the Rankin/Bass Christmas special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. It is sung by Rudolph and Hermey when they decide to be independent and strike out on their own. Due to inclusion of the special's extended ending in 1965, the song was cut and replaced with "Fame and Fortune" from then until 1998.
The song is also featured in Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July, in which Rudolph and Frosty sing it at the end. The lyrics are mostly the same there, but with Hermey's solo verse rewritten as one fitting Frosty.
Lyrics
Original version
- Both: We're a couple of misfits
- We're a couple of misfits
- What's the matter with misfits
- That's where we fit in!
- We're not daffy and dilly
- Don't go 'round willy nilly
- Seems to us kinda silly
- That we don't fit in.
- We may be different from the rest
- Who decides the test
- Of what is really best?
- We're a couple of misfits
- We're a couple of misfits
- What's the matter with misfits?
- That's where we fit in!
- Rudolph: Why am I such a misfit?
- I am not just a nitwit!
- I'm a dear of a reindeer
- Why don't I fit in?
- Hermey: Why am I such a misfit?
- I am not just a nitwit!
- They can't fire me, I QUIT!
- Seems I don't fit in.
- Both: We may be different from the rest
- Who decides the test
- Of what is really best?
- We're a couple of misfits
- We're a couple of misfits
- What's the matter with misfits?
- That's where we fit in!
