I can't tell you all my secrets Maybe you should start with one You're right I'll show you where I met your dad He'd be proud of his son Who cares? We're better off without him No It's time you found out More about him Wow, look at the size of those waves Fire's going. Somebody needs a marshmallow, and they're blue! Don't tell me you're too old for blue food You met dad on this beach? I first saw him in the water Coming out of the morning mist He was handsome, strong And before too long- You came To exist And he ditched us No coming home for dinner Yeah, he sounds like a real winner Percy, he didn't have a choice. He wanted to meet you, and he warned me that things might be hard if you were like him Was he a screw up too? Sorry, mom. If I was only normal- Hey Blue food isn't normal Blue food is strange And that's why it's my favorite I never want it to change To make it boring orange or green Why be blah When there's aquamarine Normal is a myth Everyone has issues they're dealing with Mom, if you're weird, you're weak That's where you're wrong The things that make you different Are the very things that make you Strong So, be strong You'll see, you're destined for great things The only thing I seem to be destined for is detention I can't focus I stink at school My A.D.D. gets the best of me Dyslexia: not cool Just hang on son One day you'll find You'll leave that boring little life behind Normal is a myth Everyone has issues they're dealing with And there's a place You need to go Where you belong Where the things that make you different Are the things that make you special Special like your father Yes, Percy, you are special Like food the color blue All the things that make you, you Are the things That will make you Strong So be strong
