  • 0:57 - 1:01
    Zeus is my brother and I tried to be kind,

    I'm Artemis, honey; hunting at will.
  • 1:46 - 1:49
    My arrows are sharp,
    and they're set to kill.
  • 1:49 - 1:51
    Protecting the young I preside over birth.

    'Cause my bellows are blowin',
    and my forge is hot.

  • 3:13 - 3:15
    and my friends are sweet,
  • 3:15 - 3:17
    but I've helped with the man,
    and got wings on my feet.
  • 3:19 - 3:21
    From Mount Olympus, we made our plans.
