Jocelyn Brown - The Gospel Truth Lyrics

Ooh, we are the muses
Goddesses of the arts
And proclaimers of heroes

Heroes like Hercules

Honey, you mean Hunk-ules!
Woohoo, I'd like to make some sweet music with him, wow!

Our story actually begins long before Hercules
Many eons ago

Back when the world was new
The planet Earth was down on its luck
And everywhere gigantic brutes called Titans ran amok

It was a nasty place
There was a mess wherever you stepped
Where chaos reigned and earthquakes and volcanoes never slept
Sing it my friend

And then along came Zeus
He hurled his thunderbolt
He zapped
Locked those suckers in a vault
They're trapped
And on his own stopped chaos in its tracks
And that's the gospel truth
The guy was too type A to just relax

And that's the world's first dish (yeah, baby)
Zeus tamed the globe while still in his youth
Though, honey, it may seem imposs'ble
That's the gospel truth

On Mt. Olympus life was neat and smooth as sweet vermough
Though, honey, it may seem imposs'ble
That's the gospel truth, yeah-eh, eh-yeah, eh-yeah-yeah
Oh yeah-yeah-eh
(ohh-oh)
Hey, hey-yeah
(ohh-oh)
Oh, yeah-yeah-eh
(ohh-oh)
Hey, hey, hey, hey-yeah
(ohh-oh-oh)
Oh, yeah-eh

If there's one god you don't want to get steamed up
It's Hades
'Cause he had an evil plan

He ran the Underworld
But thought the dead were dull and uncouth
He was as mean as he was ruthless
And that's the Gospel truth
He had a plan to shake things up
And that's the Gospel truth

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 Zeus and Hera wept
Because their son could never come home
They'd have to watch their precious baby grow up from afar
Though Hades' horrid plan was hatched before Herc cut his first tooth
The boy grew stronger every day
And that's the Gospel truth

(The Gospel truth)
Yeah-eh-yeahh
