[LUKE], spoken
Come on, grab some ambrosia, and let the nectar flow
[PERCY, spoken]
Why is everyone scraping part of their plate into the fire? Is the food here really that bad?
[LUKE, spoken]
Offering to the gods. It's not enough that they're omnipotent and all-powerful, they need to feel appreciated. To the gods!
[ENSEMBLE, spoken]
To the gods!
[LUKE]
Oh, things couldn't be worse
When your parents run the universe
[ALL]
Oh, things couldn't be worse
When your folks run the universe
[LUKE]
My dad is Hermes
He messengers things
You'll know his sign by his shoes with those wings
I'd wait by the phone, but the phone never rings
Oh no
[ENSEMBLE makes noises of agreement.]
When your dad's a god, life can be tough
I met the guy once, and once was enough
(Spoken)
Annabeth?
[ANNABETH]
My mom's Athena
She's smart and she's wise
She's sworn off gluten and she's sworn off guys
But if she came to camp, it'd be a surprise
Oh no
[LUKE & KATIE]
Oh, no
Oh, and my stepmom, she hates me, and my dad works all day
So I left Virginia and I ran away
[PERCY, spoken]
Wait, is that true?
[LUKE, spoken]
Everybody!
[ALL]
Oh, things couldn't be worse
When your parents run the universe
Oh, things couldn't be worse
When your folks run the universe
[LUKE, spoken]
Alright, who's next?
[KATIE, spoken]
Oh! Okay, let me see! Uh...
(Sung)
My mom's Demeter
Goddess of grain
She gets excited when it starts to rain
But planting and planting and planting's a pain
Oh no
[ENSEMBLE: Oh no]
[KATIE, spoken]
Right?
(Sung)
For their sixteenth birthday, my friends got a car
I got a fern in some dumb mason jar
[GROVER, spoken]
Ooh, ooh! My turn!
(Sung)
I'm a 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...
[ENSEMBLE: Oh, no]
[GROVER]
He went for a hike to explore new frontiers
And no one has seen him for thousands of years
[ALL]
Oh, things couldn't be worse
When your parents run the universe
Oh, things couldn't be worse
When your folks run the universe
[PERCY, spoken]
Chiron! Who's your dad?
[CHIRON, spoken]
Oh, well...
(Sung)
My father is Kronos
Remember my lecture
He ate his children
[LUKE, spoken]
Chiron wins
[ENSEMBLE makes noises of agreement]
How about you Silena?
[SILENA]
The goddess of love
My mom's Aphrodite
She tries to be cool but mainly she's flighty
I'll bring home a boy, and she's there in her nightie
[ENSEMBLE: Oh no!]
(Spoken)
It's so embarrassing, guys!
(Sung)
I tried to seek help from even the fates
Cause she steals my mascara and all of my dates
[LUKE, spoken]
Alright Percy, it's your turn
[PERCY, spoken]
If I tried to sing, it'll probably cause an avalanche
[LUKE, spoken]
Oh, we're all friends here. Come on, give it a shot
[PERCY]
My mom was named Sally
She loved scary movies
And food that was blue
And-
[KATIE, spoken]
He's doing it wrong
[SILENA, spoken]
Yeah, who's your godly parent?
[PERCY, spoken]
Oh... I don't know
[LUKE, spoken]
It's alright A lot of half-bloods never know their godly parent. Just give it a try
[PERCY]
So my dad is some god
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
[ENSEMBLE cheers]
I hope he shows even a trace
'Cause I got some choice words to throw in his face!
[ALL]
Oh, things couldn't be worse
When your parents run the universe
Oh, things couldn't be worse
[LUKE]
But I don't care where our parents may be
As long as you are here with me
[ALL]
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!
