Strong

SALLY]
 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
 (Spoken)
 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
 (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
 (Spoken)
 Was he a screw up too?
 Sorry, mom. If I was only... normal-
 (Spoken)
 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
 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.
 (Spoken)
 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
