God Games Lyrics
[ZEUS]
Divine intervention, is that what you seek?
To untie apprehensions that were placed on that greek?
You are playing with thunder for a man full of shame
But if he’s worth the risk of going under, why not make it a game?
Convince each of them that he ought to be released, and I’ll release him
[ATHENA]
Who’s them?
[ZEUS]
Apollo, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Ares, Hera, and me
What do you say?
[APOLLO]
Great
[HEPHAESTUS]
Very well
[APHRODITE]
Eh
[ARES]
Alright
[HERA]
Groovy
[ATHENA]
Bring it
[CROWD]
Aphrodite
[APHRODITE]
Your little high and mighty Odysseus
Claims to love his mothеr
But let her die of a brokеn heart
[ATHENA]
He was busy fighting
[APHRODITE]
More like busy spiting the cyclops
Let him feel the pain that his mother felt and rot
[ATHENA]
Wait, please reconsider this
[ARES]
Really Athena? These old tricks?
[ATHENA]
Ares!
[CROWD]
Ares, Ares
[ARES]
What kind of sick coward
Holds back his power
While his friends get devoured?
He didn’t even fight Scylla
Didn’t even try to kill her
Hides inside a wooden horse to get the job done
Never handles things upfront
Pathetic and weak like his son
[ATHENA]
Hold your tongue now
His son’s my friend
And tell your lover that a broken heart can mend
You want more bloodshed?
Then set him free
To get back to his homestead, he’ll make everybody bleed
[APHRODITE & ARES]
Ugh, release him
[HERA]
Hey baby
[CROWD]
Hera!
[HERA]
So many heroes
So many tales
Give me one good reason why yours should prevail
[ATHENA]
He’s got the mind of a genius
[HERA]
Try harder
[ATHENA]
He’s pretty skilled with words
[HERA]
You can do better than that
[ATHENA]
He’s kind of funny?
[HERA]
Eh
[ATHENA]
Never once has he cheated on his wife
[HERA]
Release him
