Six schools in six years
Been kicked out of every place
Everything I ever do is wrong
Never find where I belong
Everybody on my case
The same old story
The same old song
"Don't act up, don't act out
Be strong"
I keep my head down
I keep my chin up
But it ends up all the same
"Pack your bags, Percy
You're always to blame"
I never try to do anything
I never mean to hurt anyone
I try, I try to be a good kid
A good kid
A good son
But no one will ever take my side
All I ever do is take the fall
I swear, I swear that I'm a good kid
Yes, I'm good for nothing at all
Gabe was a world-class jerk
Dad was never there
The only family that really mattered?
Well, she vanished into the air
And now, I finally find a haven
Somewhere safe where I can stay
Until it's:
"Pack your bags, Percy
Now go your own way."
I never tried to do anything
I never mean to hurt anyone
I swear, I swear that I'm a good kid
Yeah, Percy, that's a good one...
But no one will ever take my side
All I ever do is take the fall
I swear, I swear that I'm a good kid
Yeah I'm good for nothing at all
The schools in six years
Every battle
Every day
No one ever tells me that they're proud
No one asks me, "Percy, are you liked to come around and stay?"
All you get are bad grades
A bum rap, a bad rep
And a good smack, and no friends
And no home, and no mom...
She's taken away
I swear I never stole anything
I never meant to hurt anyone
I swear, I swear that I'm a good kid
A good kid, who's had a bad run
All I need is one last chance
To prove that I'm
Good enough for someone
I'm good enough for someone, (Six schools in six years.)
I'm good enough for someone, (Six schools in six years.)
I'm good enough for someone. (Six schools in six years.)
