Lightning Thief Cast, The - Good Kid Lyrics
[Percy:]
Six schools in six years
Been kicked out of every place
Everything I ever do is wrong
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
[Percy & Ensemble:]
"Pack your bags, Percy
You're always to blame"
[Percy:]
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 ever will 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
Someplace safe, where I can stay
'Till it's...
[Percy & Ensemble:]
"Pack your bags, Percy
Now go, go away!"
[Percy:]
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 ever will 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
[Ensemble:]
Ah...
Take the fall
[Percy:]
All the schools in six years
Every battle, everyday
No one ever tells me that they're proud
No one asks me
"Percy, how'd you like to come round 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 hope
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...
[Ensemble:]
Six schools in six years...

Lightning Thief Cast, The Good Kid Comments
I like to pretend he’s looking at Annabeth when he sings, “I’m good enough for someone.” 😢
i’m just sad bc of how much i relate to this song
but pretty damn happy bc it’s better than both movies combined
I want to see this musical
I always loved how retable Percy is.He never wanted to be a hero he just wanted to get through middle school and ends up saving the world and the funny thing is while hes having amazing adventures and wants a normal life we would trade places with him in a heartbeat.Am I right?
Just me?
Oki...
*distant sobbing*
Okay wait why am I crying.. no... 😭
0:40 - 1:11 is totally me
Hate to be the one to ruin 1,000 comments, but it must be done.
1000th person to comment. This song is amazing though.
Well it’s official.., this musical made me cry
Percy: "I swear I never stole anything/I never meant to hurt anyone"
Luke: "So I'll do anything/I don't care if I hurt anyone"
Brilliant
this is better that the movies lmao
I relate to Percy except I’ve never gotten suspended or expelled
Wait how was sally the only survivor on the plane is she supernatural?
Why can’t the movies be like this
I love this song
I wish this was in Apple Music
Kate Reacts101 it is on apple music i think
This song really strikes deep chords with me Everytime I listen to it
it really be like that
i want to hug him :/
Percy.....Jackson....musical? When did this happen? God I'm old.
HARRY POTTER WHO??????
these are so true to the books I love it so fricken muchhhhh
I love the raw emotion Chris puts in his voice, he definitely gets Percy down.
Percy is such a sweet kid, but he's been through all this shit, which is why he's so bitter at times, and he's only good thing in his life is his mom, Sally. Sally is the perfect mom (along with Natalie Chase), she put Percy's needs before her own, staying with Gabe even though he abused her and Percy so that her son could be safe. I've always been more partial to Grover and Annabeth because I've been through some the stuff they've been through, and I never had (or will ever have) a good relationship with any of my parents, especially my mom.
I don't like Percy Jackson but I stumbled upon this and I actually really like it
I've been to six high schools, they start to get blurry-
Oops, wrong musical.
PUT THIS ON APPLE MUSIC BEFORE I THROW HANDS
i cry every time
please dont let tik tok get to this ;-;
THIS MUSICAL IS SO GOOD IM SO GLAD IM FINALLY LISTENING TO KT
This song is a TRIP MY GUY
Stay with me here, Percy is Peter Parker, Grover is Ned, and Annabeth is MJ
Be honest, when he said "I'm good enough for someone", y'all thought of Annabeth.
Dam, I never get tired of this song no matter how many times I've heard it. It just captures Percy in the best way possible WAAAAAYYY better than the movies.
"I'm good enough for someone..."
yeah, you're good enough for Annabeth <3
Something really interesting I noticed about this song was how in the list of phrases that Percy hears a lot, like “Don’t act up, Don’t act out” is his mom’s (who he adores as almost perfect) “Be strong” at 0:31. Even though she meant it as an affirmation for Percy, it just added onto the pressure he felt from the world around him. Take that information how you’d like, I just find it interesting and important
I’m going to this musical in a couple of months, and honestly I can NOT believe it. This has been my favorite book since I got past the second chapter. I live in L.A. so I’ll have to take a plane (o H god zEus nO) so please, wish me luck on my quest! ;’D
Sitting here wishing we got a decent movie series but this will definitely do lol
This song is Percy on Opposite Day
BROADWAY BABY
I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS YOU FINALLY MANAGED TO MAKE IT TO BROADWAY, THIS SHOW AND THE BOOK WERE MY CHILDHOOD, AND I'M OVERJOYED <3
It starts a bit like "I've been to 10 high schools... It starts to get blurry..."
Any TUA fans here? This song honestly reminds me a lot of Klaus.
Why is this song perfect for Virgil from Sander Sides?
wait guys- imagine nico in this musical
My singing is even worse than the sound of nails on a chalkboard. Ask Will, I made Will go deaf in his left ear for half a week when i tried to sing once...
Nico di Angelo AHAHAH
this musical hold such a powerful kind of frustration that brings a lot of emotions. Even though I can't relate to Percy's struggles, the song here gives me an idea of the frustration and pain he's going through
Bro same, you can feel how he feels and you can understand
"And a good smack"
Also basically that entire part
NO PERCY YOU DONT DESERVE ANY OF THAT
gabe i swear I will murder you twice over.
I wont hesitate to take your fucking statue and smash it into little pieces you fucking piece of shit and trash set on fire while also that feeling when you walk into a shit puddle with fresh socks on and all of the feelings like that combined you fucking douche
I am addicted to this soundtrack
I wanna hear the Seven's version of this
Years later:
Percy: *goes missing*
Entire camp: AAAAHH PERCY'S GONE WHAT DO WE DO??!!!!!
Annabeth: Seaweed Brain I am gonna judo flip you SO hard WHEN I find you.
Percy: no one cares about me :(
Fans: ...?
I love this song #me😂😂
this is like,, a nicer version of freeze your brain
Yeah exactly without the whole psychopath twist on it
At the beginning of the book Percy said, "Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood." The first thing that Percy says in the musical is, "Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood." This is better than the movies. It actually has the real storyline, unlike the first movie. they didn't even have an oracle in the movie!
*till it’s pack your bags percy* that’s gets me
Dang! Percy has such a good voice!
When I saw this live, I sobbed for the entire song
I’ve always loved this song but 2:15 to the end breaks my heart now
Um... why hasnt anyone told me about this!!
If Evan Hansen vaguely had the life of Jason Dean?
I’m not crying, you are
I wish this song was longer, it's SOOO good!
I love this play
why you slap a kid with dyslexia and adhd dang stepdad
0:41 - 0:54 is what I relate to spiritually 😂
this song give me chills. chris mccarrell has an amazing voice he’s perfect for the role of percy
This makes me cry laughing because I loved Percy Jackson when I was younger but this is not good! Great singing, terrible writing
i told my friend about the musical and she about lost it when I said Bianca was only in it for like 3 seconds
why must this song be so relatable
Chris macarrel is so good
We watched the movie version in my school, and I just found out there was a musical version, that I would've much rather have watched. IDK WHY BUT I LOVE MUSICALS
Chocolate & Chips have you read the books? They are the original content so if not you should!
"No one asks me "Percy, how'd you like to come around and stay?" ". Am I the only one who wants to grab Percy and give him a hug and take him home with me?
THIS SONG HAS SO MUCH FEELS IM CRYING
A 3 min song gets the character better than a 2h long big budget movie
pore Percy
I'M CRYING THIS MAKES ME SO SAD AND I LOVE IT
This has such a Words Fail vibe I’m NOT ok
2:21 omg wo I’m cri
This series always made me have fun imagining who my godly parent would be. Cuz I'm adopted, and I know my birth mom but all I know of my birth dad is his name. So I would imagine when I was younger that I was a halfblood.
Rhea Marcel Prepare to die ‘cause there would be a monster sooner or later to eat you.
All the dislikes are from Ms. Dodds’ fake accounts.
*stupid furies*
I always cry with this song hElp
I tried to be emotional during this song
But I kept thinking about _Fart-nuts_ and I began laughing instead of crying
And here I am at midnight listening to this...
I'm a real good kid😂
This song is so fucking relatable
Wow! I didn’t even know this was turned into a musical! What rock have I been under?!? This is awesome!
This is the first song that I heard and made me want to see the musical. Also if you take some parts out they apply so much to real day life.
I would like to thank my reading teacher from last year for showing me Percy Jackson I said that on stage when she was there and we did a Percy Jackson play🔱
I saw the show when it came to DC. IT WAS AMAZING!!! And yup, 100000+ times better than the movies😁
“NO FRIENDS!” *Grover sulking quietly sulking*
The end tho!O-O
WHY DID I DISCOVER THIS JUST NOW?? IT'S AMAZING!
Tbh I want the Gods and Percy’s friends to listen to that song, just to understand how hard it is to him
Hands down best broadway song I have ever heard. It’s so dang relatable
Wish her back with the Dragon Balls.
I love this song so so much
*percy deserves everything that makes him happy, fight me*
I heard Luca sing this at JTF and now I’m OBSESSED
oh yeah yeah good kidddd
Why is Percy the sassiest, saltiest person in the world, but the sweetest cinnamon roll too? This is why the whole fandom freaking loves him. YOU'RE GOOD ENOUGH FOR US PERSASSY!!(and Annabeth)
Percy = best cinnamon roll boi
