Young Herc was mortal now
But since he did not drink the last drop
He still retained his godlike strength
So thank his lucky star
But Zues and Her a wept
Because their son could never come home
They'd have to watch their pre cious baby
Grow up from afar
Though Hades' horrid plan
Was hatched before Herc cut his first tooth
The boy grew stronger ev'ry day
And t hat's the gospel truth
