This took literally less than 3 minutes. Lyrics: Come on, grab some ambrosia, & let the nectar flow! Why is everyone scraping part of their food into the fire? Is the food here really that bad? Offering to the gods. It’s not enough that they’re Omnipotent & 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 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! When your dad’s a god, life can be tough! I met the guy once, & once was enough. Annabeth? My mom’s Athena, she’s smart & she’s wise. She sworn off gluten & she sworn off guys. But if she came to camp, it’d be a surprise. Oh, no… Oh, no! Oh, & my stepmom, she hates me, & my dad works all day, so I left Virginia, & 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! Okay, let me see… My mom’s Demeter, goddess of grain! She gets excited when it starts to rain. But planting & planting & 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 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… Oh, no… He went for a hike to explore new frontiers, & no one has 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. My father is Kronos. Remember my lecture, he ate his children. Chiron wins! How about you, 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, & she’s there in her nightie! Oh, no! It’s so embarrassing, guys! I tried to seek help from even the fates! Cause she steals my mascara & all of my dates! Alright, Percy, it’s your turn! If I tried to sing, it’ll probably cause an avalanche. Oh, we’re all friends here! Come on, give it a shot! My mom was named Sally. She loved scary movies. & food that was blue, &- He’s doing it wrong. Yeah, who’s your godly parent? Oh. I don’t know. It’s alright. A lot of half-bloods never know their godly parent. Just give it a try. So my dad is some god. That’s great, I guess. Did he not want me, or not want the stress? Well, too bad he’s the worst, & my life is a mess! Oh, no… I hope he shows even a trace! Cause I got some choice words to throw in his face! 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!
