Part One=
Now, young Herc, as a teen
Was a lot like the rest
With a heroic dream
Thalia: And no hair on his chest (Terpsichore giggles)
He was working with Phil
On his physical best,
When his dad intervened
With this simple request
Child, what did he say?
You've got to send
(Send my boy)
Send my boy
(Send my boy)
You've got to send my boy to school
Fill his hollow head
With a fountain of knowledge
Every mortal mind needs fuel
He's got to learn the difference
Between right and wrong
And someday soon he'll need a date for the prom!
Don't want him growing up to be no fool
You've got to send my boy to school
|-|Part Two=
Thalia: Honey, what's scarier than giving Medusa a makeover?
Terpsichore: Girl, the first day of a new school.
Show him facts and figures
Bring him books to read
Give him all the tools and learning skills
He'll need to succeed
As a shiny gene pool jewel
You've got to send my boy
He's my pride and joy
You've got to send
My boy
To school
|-|Part Three=
Herc's most dangerous lesson's
About to begin
Cassandra's predicted his doom
(Shoo-wop)
On top of our hero
The roof is gonna fall
You don't want to miss it
Stay tuned
|-|Part Four=
So ends this tale
Of a humble beginning
The hero won't always
Get glory for winning
But that's how it goes
I suppose that it shows
You need two fists to fight
When your foe's
Got more
Than one nose
