That Old Greek Religion

After four weeks working with a group of goddesses, two of them Greek, I’m reviewing my religious options, and considering a return to the old Greek religion:- Give me that old Greek religion Give me that old Greek religion Give me that old Greek religion It’s good enough for me I will worship one Athena You’d know why if you had seen ’er With a bountiful demeanour And she’s good enough for me I will worship goddess Hebe For with her you get a freebie That gives you the Hebe jeeby And she’s good enough for me I will worship Aphrodite She’s beautiful but flighty And she goes round in her nighty But she’s good enough for me I will worship goddess Rania Like the fairy queen Titania So enchanting they should ban ya But you’re good enough for me We should worship one called Stella She’d be adored by every fella And we’d all sing a capella: “She’s good enough for me!” With your old Godfather Zeus If they don’t give you fair dues He’ll make an offer they can’t refuse And that’s good enough for me

I've always thought the pagans had more insight into the female side of divinity!
