Good Kid

Lyrics

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 downed
 Be strong"
 I keep my head down
 I keep my chin up
 But it ends up all the same
 With: "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
 Guess 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
 'Til it's: "Pack your bags, Percy,
 Now go your own way."
 I never try 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
 Guess 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, how'd you like to come around and stay?"
 All you get are bad grades
 And a bum rap, and 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
 And all I need is one last chance
 To prove I'm
 Good enough for someone
 I'm good enough for someone
 I'm good enough for someone (Six schools in six years, six schools in six years)
 I'm good enough for someone (Six schools in six years)
