Deméter (Destripando La Historia)

Hello, vegans and herbivores
Welcome to Gutting History, with Pascu and Rodri!
Today, we bring you the goddess of agriculture
Demeter

Her dad ate her
Her little brother saved her
She fights against fierce titans, defeated them all
They divide all the land, but not with her

Goddess of harvest and bread
(Demeter)
She won't tell you her mysteries
(Demeter)

They went to a wedding (oh-oh)
She falls in love with her nephew Iasion
Zeus doesn't like it (ooh-oh)
And throws a destructive lightning bolt

He sleeps with her and then impregnates her
She gave birth to a beautiful girl
Poor Demeter (ooh-oh)
My Persephone!

But Zeus gave her away
Looking for a wife? Stay with my daughter
Really? - Of course!
Hades went and kidnapped her (daughter!)

He searched everywhere for her
But couldn't find her
I saw your brother taking her away
Zeus allowed it

Angry, she leaves her home
(Demeter)
And the earth begins to dry up
(Demeter)

She goes into service (oh-oh)
For a famous king who accepted her
She takes care of his children (ooh-oh)
She grows fond of both

She bakes one in the fireplace
To turn him into a God
Poor Demeter (ooh-oh)
(What are you doing with my son?)

Uh, what's going on here? (People are dying)
Demeter, come back to me (people are dying)
Someone make her come out (people are dying)
I don't know what to do without you (people are dying)

Release my little one (ooh)
Let her return and it's over
Hades sets her free (ooh-oh)
With a slight condition

She, every winter, will return to my realm
And her mother finally calmed down

She left her chariot (oh-oh)
To one of the children she cared for
Filled it with grain (ooh-oh)
And teaches him to be a farmer

And with great effort
She teaches her mysteries
And throughout Greece, she held
Festivals to Demeter (ooh-oh)
