"Hey Pete" she said "it's not too late
I still think that you're just great
You need to wait in the right place
Where you'll meet a girl with good taste"
"Aw, ma don't you think I tried?
I think there's something wrong inside
I have no problem making friends
But that's where the story ends"
I have no problem hanging out
Then I see a glimpse of doubt
And I don't understand
What makes them not like me?
I'm just trying to be myself
But it's so far from everyone else
And I don't understand what makes them not like me
"Hey Pete I see from what you said
That the problem's all in your head
And if you want to make a change
You must let go of being strange."
"Yeah mom the problem's in my brain
Sometimes I really think I'm insane
It goes much deeper than the beard
Deep down inside me I'm just weird
I have no problem hanging out...
Maybe I'm just weird
"You're not weird Pete you're just fine
And I'm proud to say you're mine
Regardless of the strange things you've done
I'm so glad that you're my son
I really think from what you said
That the problem's all in your head
And if you want to make a change
You must let go of being strange"
The lyrics HEY PETE of TEN FOOT POLE is also present in the album Unleashed (1997)
Ten Foot Pole è un gruppo musicale statunitense di pop punk e melodic hardcore punk originario della California. La band si è formata nel 1983 con il nome Scared Straight, ma ha cambiato nome nel 1993 per evitare confusioni con altre band dello straight edge. Il loro sound è caratterizzato da riff veloci, melodie orecchiabili e testi energici che affrontano temi come la frustrazione giovanile, l'alienazione e la ricerca di identità. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "The Ballad of the Broken Heart", "I Don't Care" e "My Life Is a Mess". Ten Foot Pole ha pubblicato diversi album, tra cui "The First Album" (1994) e "The Second Album" (1996), che hanno contribuito a consolidare la loro posizione nel panorama musicale punk.
