GROVER 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
CONDUCTOR (spoken) All aboard!
GROVER 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!
CONDUCTOR (spoken) St. Louis, everybody off!
ANNABETH (spoken) Look! The Gateway Arch!
PERCY (spoken) Whoa. Look! A lady with a puppy! Aw, is that a Chihuahua? Aw, hey lil– whoa!
ECHIDNA (spoken) (laughing) It's a chimera!
ANNABETH That was freaky!
PERCY That was scary!
GROVER Yo, guys, are you aware We keep surviving every creepy crazy thing
TRACTOR GUY (spoken) Hop on my tractor!
PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER Like an arrow from Orion Keep on straight and keep on tryin’ No Fates are ever gonna cut our string
REPORTER (spoken) 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–
PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER 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!
TRACTOR GUY (spoken) Bye kids!
ANNABETH (spoken) 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.
PERCY (spoken) Do we have enough drachmas for an Uber?
GROVER (spoken) We don't even have enough drachmas for a cheeseburger!
PERCY (spoken) If you hadn't bought all those dam snacks–
GROVER (spoken) Uh, it was the Hoover Dam, and I was hungry!
PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER (spoken) (indistinct arguing)
PERCY (spoken) Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Why are we fighting?
ARES (spoken) 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?
PERCY (spoken) What do you think? Can we trust this guy?
GROVER It’s one foot forward at a time?
PERCY Dust off all that grit and grime?
ANNABETH We still–
PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER 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
ARES The road, it offers freedom As for rules, hell, we don't need 'em!
ALL So pedal to the metal and drive!
PERCY 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!
ARES (spoken) Vegas, baby! This is where I get off.
GROVER (spoken) That guy is so cool.
ANNABETH (spoken) Okay, gang, we’ll be in LA tomorrow. But tonight, we need a place to sleep.
PERCY (spoken) How about here? The Lotus Hotel.
ANNABETH (spoken) Pssh, you're joking, right? In The Odyssey, if you went to sleep in a lotus bed, one night could last one hundred years!
PERCY (spoken) Uh, I'm sure that's irrelevant. Um, excuse me miss, how long have you been at this hotel?
BIANCA DI ANGELO (spoken) Why, my brother and I arrived just yesterday; May 1st... 1939!
PERCY (spoken) Uh, we can sleep on the road
PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER Drive Just drive
Stay ahead And don't get dead And stay alive
GROVER With the wind upon our faces We’re getting all the places
ANNABETH No major fender benders Now we’re looking like contenders
PERCY The Oracle can can it I'll save my mom and save the planet
PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER So pedal to the metal and–
PERCY (spoken) Oh look, a bus to Los Angeles!
ANNABETH (spoken) Are you sure that's a good idea?
PERCY (spoken) This one we just won't blow up!
GROVER Ha!
PERCY, ANNABETH, GROVER And drive!
