The Company White Lightning song lyrics

I can't tell you all my secrets

Maybe you should start with one

(Spoken) You're right

(Sung)I'll show you where I met your dad

He'd be proud of his son

(Spoken) Who cares?

(Sung) We're better off without him

(Spoken) No

(Sung) It's time you found out

More about him

(Spoken) 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?

(Sung) 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

(Spoken) And he ditched us

(Sung) No coming home for dinner

Yeah, he sounds like a real winner

(Spoken) 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

(Sung) 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

(Spoken) Mom, if you're weird, you're weak

(Sung) That's where you're wrong

The things that make you different

Are the very things that make you

Strong

So, be strong

(Spoken) You'll see, you're destined for great things

The only thing I seem to be destined for is detention

(Sung) 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
