Loading...

[luke]
the gods are real
like the greek gods

[annabeth]
like the ones you learned about
but weren’t paying attention to

[luke and annabeth]
well, they don’t pay attention to you, either
[all]
especially if you’re their kid

[grover]
the gods have godly things to do

[grover and silena]
godly places they need to see

[clarisse]
godly plans they need to make
that don’t include
me!

[all]
yeah, the gods are real
and they have kids
and those kids have
issues
issues
[boys]
daddy doesn’t love me
and mommy is a god

[girls]
mommy can’t protеct me
and daddy is a god

mommy is too busy
and daddy is too busy
busy, busy, busy, busy being a god
yeah

you never listen to me
you never listen
you never listen to me
you never listen, oh
you never listen but
now, you’re gonna listen
’cause it’s time you heard our side of the story
it’s time you heard our story

[percy, spoken]
look!

[sung]
i didn’t wanna be a half+blood
i didn’t ask to be a hero seeking praise

being a half+blood, it’s scary
it mostly gets you k!lled in very nasty ways

i didn’t want to cause trouble, trouble
i’m less a player and more the played

and, honestly, i’d be totally be fine
if i could make it to the next grade, next grade

it wasn’t dirty socks or my stepdad
it was danger that i smelled

the day it all went down
the day i got expelled
[spoken]
maybe you don’t know what a half+blood is because your life is normal and happy and not constantly in danger, but my life…? [hums] let me set the scene

[sung]
we were on this freaky field trip

[ensemble]
freaky trip
that’s when this story should probably start

[all]
we were geeking out on ancient greek
at the new york metropolitan museum of art

[percy]
we stopped by all the statues
and learned about the gods
with mr. brunner and my substitute, mrs. dodds

hadn’t done nothing wrong
wasn’t rude
hadn’t rebelled

[all]
on the day it all went down

[percy]
the day i got expelled

[mr. brunner, spoken]
the greek gods! almighty titans of earth, sea, and sky! but even they were children once. and they didn’t have it easy! their father, kronos, feared the day his children would one day inherit the earth. so what did he do?
anyone? anyone?

[mrs. dodds, spoken]
he ate them!

[mr brunner, spoken]
ah… thank you mrs. dodds

but! one child, zeus, escaped and devised a plan to rescue his brothers and sisters! he tricked kronos into eating a rock. and what did kronos do?
anyone? any student?

[mrs. dodds, spoken]
he vomited them up!

[percy, sung]
i didn’t really get the story
at least it wasn’t boring as i’d feared
but is it me, or is greek mythology
not deeply weird?
i didn’t want to pay attention
([ensemble]: pay attention! pay attention!)
now i wish i had taken notes
but my focus is in question
and gods and indigestion caused a groan from all our throats

[ensemble]
ew!

[grover]
baaaaaah!

[percy, spoken]
dude, what was that?

[grover, spoken]
uh, nothing!

[percy, sung]
my best friend was acting strange
at which he so excelled

[all]
the day it all went down

[percy]
the day i got expelled

[spoken]
why do you have peanut b+tter in your hair?

[grover, spoken]
ask nancy bobofit. she’s a monster! not literally. i don’t think

[percy, spoken]
she threw a peanut b+tter sandwich at you?

[grover, spoken]
she threw a peanut b+tter sandwich at you, i stopped it. with my head

[percy, spoken]
grover, you’re a good friend

[grover, spoken]
aw…
dude. i’m your only friend

[mrs dodds, sung]
percy jackson!

[percy]
i knew something was up
when i heard my name get yelled

[all]
the day it all went down+

[percy]
i saw something odd in mrs. dodds’ frown

[all]
the day it all got weird

[percy]
the day i got expelled

[mrs dodds, spoken]
mr. jackson

[percy, sung]
oh+oh+oh+oh!

[mrs dodds, spoken]
mr. jackson

[percy, sung]
oh+oh+oh+oh!

[mrs dodds, spoken]
mr. jackson!
please see me by the sphinx

[percy, spoken]
look… if this is about nancy bobofit, she only hates me because i tried to get her to stop wedgie+ing the first graders+

[mrs dodds, spoken]
i have heard much about you… percy jackson

[percy, spoken]
really? that’s very dedicated for a substitute…

[mrs dodds, spoken]
kicked out of five schools in six years. one might question your parentage

[percy, spoken]
hey, don’t talk about my mom+

[mrs dodds, spoken]
and your father? that’s right… you don’t know who he is! [begins laughing]

[percy, spoken]
what’s this about anyway?

uh, mrs. dodds?
you have something growing on your+

[mrs. dodds’ laughter become maniacal. percy screams]

[mr brunner, spoken]
what ho, percy!

[percy, spoken]
mr. brunner! what am i supposed to do with a pen+ sword! woah!

[mrs. dodds screams]

[percy, spoken]
mr. brunner?
mrs… dodds?

um…

[sung]
i didn’t know what just had happened
was that all a creepy, crazy dream?

my teacher was a creature
then she vanished in the ether
with a demon scream

the next thing that i knew
i was where detention was held

the day it all got real
the day i got+

[spoken]
expelled?

[mr. brunner, spoken]
i tried, percy, but the headmaster stands firm in his decision. you were supposed to stay with the group. and this was your final warning

[percy, spoken]
but it wasn’t my fault, it was mrs. dodds! she lured me away, she attacked me, and… you saw it!

[mr. brunner, spoken]
did i?

[percy, spoken]
and you gave me that pen! only it wasn’t a pen, it was a sword, and…
what?

[grover, spoken]
percy… we’ve never had a teacher named mrs. dodds

[mr. brunner, spoken]
perhaps it’s for the best. this wasn’t the place for you. it was only a matter of time before+

[percy, spoken]
i got kicked out?

[mr brunner, spoken]
that’s not what i was going to+

[percy, spoken]
you think i’m trouble. just like everyone else

[mr. brunner, spoken]
no, but… that is to say… i can only accept the best from you, percy. someday you’ll understand why. i’m truly sorry

[percy, spoken]
yeah well, i’m sorry i let you down

[grover, spoken]
maybe he’s right. you never fit in at this school anyway. you’re not exactly…

[percy, spoken]
normal?

[grover, spoken]
exactly! [laughs]
i mean, uh, i’ll see you on the bus

[percy, sung]
so if you think you are a half+blood
better get headed to the exits now

’cause folks will think you’re lying
better run and don’t start crying
’cause you’re monster chow

or stick around and maybe you’ll learn from me
this ain’t odysseus’ odyssey

so hear me out
if you’re so compelled

but, n0body listens to me
they never listen
n0body listens to me
they never listen, oh

[ensemble]
dude!
you got
expelled

[percy]
i didn’t wanna be a half+blood
([ensemble]: expelled!)
i didn’t ask to be a half+blood

[all]
expelled!
