Come one, grab some ambrosia, and let the nectar flow
Why is everyone scraping part of their plate into the fire?
Is the food here really that bad?
Offering to the gods, it’s not enough
And they’re omnipotent
And all-powerful
They need to feel appreciated!
To the gods
To the gods
Oh, things couldn’t be worse
When your parents run the universe
Oh, things couldn’t be worse
When your folks run the universe
My dad is Hermes, he messages things
You’ll know his sign by his shoes with those wings
I wait by the phone, but, the phone never rings!
Oh no…
When your dad’s a god, life can be tough
I met the guy once
And once was enough
Annabeth!
Well my mom’s Athena, she’s smart and she’s wise
She swore off gluten and she swore off guys
But if she came to came, it’d be a surprise
Oh no…
Oh no…
Oh and my stepmom, she hates me and my dad works all day
So I left Virginia
And I ran away
Wait, is that true?
Everybody…
Oh, things couldn’t be worse
When your parents run the universe
Oh, things couldn’t be worse
When your folks run the universe
Alright, who’s next?
Oh, let me see, um
My mom’s Demeter, goddess of grains
She gets excited when it’s starts to rain
But planting and planting and planting’s a pain!
Oh no…
Oh no…
Right?!
For their sixteenth birthday, my friends got a car!
I got a fern in some dumb mason jar!
Ooh, ooh, my turn!
I’m the child of Pan, god of the wild
For those who love nature they’re often beguiled
He’s not really my dad, but I’m sort of his child
Oh no…
Oh no…
He went for a hike, to explore new frontiers
And no one and seen him
For thousands of years!
Oh, things couldn’t be worse
When your parents run the universe
Oh, things couldn’t be worse
When your folks run the universe
Chiron! Who’s your dad?
Oh, well…
My father is Kronos
Remember my lecture? He ate is children
Chiron wins!
*Agrees*
How about you, Silena?
The goddess of love, my mom’s Aphrodite
She tried to be cool, but mainly she’s flighty
I’ll bring home a boy, and she’s there in her nighty!
Oh no!
It’s so embarrassing, guys!
I try to seek help, from even the fates
Cause she steals my mascara
And all of my dates
Alright, Percy, it’s your turn!
If I try to sing, it’ll probably cause an avalanche
Aww, we’re all friends here, just give it a shot
Ok
So my mom was named Sally, she loved scary movies
The food that was blue and-
He’s doing it wrong
Yeah, who’s your godly parent?
Oh, I don’t know
It’s alright, a lot of half-bloods don’t know their godly parent
Just give it a shot
Um…
So my dad is some guy, that’s great I guess
Did he not want me or not want the stress
Too bad he’s the worst, and my life is a mess!
Oh no…
Oh yes, Percy!!
I hope he shows, even a trace
Cause I’ve got some choice words
To throw at his face!
Yes, Percy, that’s what I’m talking about!
Oh, things couldn’t be worse
When your parents run the universe
Oh, things couldn’t be worse
But I don’t care where our parents may be
As long as you are here with me
We don’t care where our parents may be
As long as you are here with me
As long as you are here with me!
