Drive
Guys, we got this, you ain't shot this
Yo, I know your train of thought is that there ain't no way in Hades that we'll win
All your worries come in flurries, but we bested freakin' Furies!
Look how far we've come, we can't give in
It's one foot forward at a time
Dust off all that grit and grime
We still got a lot left to do
'Cause people are counting on us, and I'm counting on you
All aboard!
Drive, just drive
Stay ahead, stay ahead, stay alive
We ain't got no time for moping when we're working and we're coping
So pedal to the metal and drive!
St. Louis, everybody off!
Look! The Gateway Arch!
Whoa, look! A lady with a puppy!
Aw, is that a Chihuahua? Aw, hey lil– whoa!
It's a chimera!
That was freaky!
That was scary!
Yo, guys, are you aware we keep surviving every creepy, crazy thing?
Hop on my tractor!
Like an arrow from Orion
Keep on straight and keep on tryin'
No Fates are ever gonna cut our string
As you can see, Bob, we've got thunder and flooding and hurricane level winds
We urge all citizens to stay off the road, and don't–
Drive, just drive
Stay ahead, stay ahead, and stay alive
The weather may be stormy, but the road is still before me
So pedal to the metal and drive!
Bye kids!
Okay, here's the problem
Public transportation is suspended due to the storm
And if we get on a plane, Zeus will strike us right out of the sky
Do we have enough drachmas for an Uber?
We don't even have enough drachmas for a cheeseburger!
If you hadn't bought all those dam snacks–
Uh, it was the Hoover Dam, and I was hungry!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Why are we fighting?
I have that effect
Ares, god of war
Maybe you've met my daughter, Clarisse?
Wh-o-oa, whoa, relax, I come in peace!
I hear you runts are headed to Hades, but you'll never make it on public transportation
I can take you as far as Vegas
Y'all cool with motorcycles, right?
What do you think? Can we trust this guy?
It's one foot forward at a time?
Dust off all that grit and grime?
We still got a lot left to do
'Cause people are counting on us, and I'm counting on you
Drive, just drive
Stay ahead, stay ahead, and stay alive
The road, it offers freedom
As for rules, hell, we don't need 'em!
So pedal to the metal and drive!
I never dreamed that I could do this
Never felt like I was worth a damn
But I, I'm sorta getting through this
I mean, wha? I mean, look at where I am!
Vegas, baby! This is where I get off
That guy is so cool
Okay, gang, we'll be in LA tomorrow, but tonight, we need a place to sleep
How about here? The Lotus Hotel
Pssh, you're joking, right? In The Odyssey, if you went to sleep in a lotus bed, one night could last one hundred years!
Uh, I'm sure that's irrelevant
Um, excuse me miss, how long have you been at this hotel?
Why, my brother and I arrived just yesterday, May 1st
1939!
Uh, we can sleep on the road
Drive, just drive
Stay ahead, and don't get dead, and stay alive
With the wind upon our faces, we're getting all the places
No major fender benders, now we're looking like contenders
The Oracle can can it, I'll save my mom and save the planet
So pedal to the metal and–
Oh look, a bus to Los Angeles!
Are you sure that's a good idea?
This one we just won't blow up!
And drive!
Yo, I know your train of thought is that there ain't no way in Hades that we'll win
All your worries come in flurries, but we bested freakin' Furies!
Look how far we've come, we can't give in
It's one foot forward at a time
