Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, yeah
Bless my soul
Herc was on a roll
Person of the week in every Greek opinion poll
What a pro
Herc could stop a show
Point him at a monster and you're talking S-R-O
He was a no one
A zero, zero
Now he's a honcho
He's a hero
Here was a kid with his act down pat
From zero to hero, in no time flat
Zero to hero, just like that
[Verse 2]
When he smiled the girls went wild with
'Oohs' and 'ahs'
And they slapped his face on every vase
On every vase
[Verse 3]
From appearance fees and royalties
Our Herc had cash to burn
Now nouveau riche and famous
He could tell you what's a Grecian urn
[Verse 4]
Say amen
There he goes again
Sweet and undefeated
And an awesome ten for ten
Folks lined up
Just to watch him flex
And this perfect package packed a pair of pretty pecs
[Verse 5]
Hercie, he comes
He sees, he conquers
Honey, the crowds were going bonkers
He showed the moxie, brains and spunk
From zero to hero (A major hunk)
Zero to hero (And who'd a thunk?)
[Verse 6]
Who put the glad in gladiator?
Hercules!
Whose daring deeds are great theater?
Hercules!
Isn't he bold?
Nobody braver
Is he sweet?
Our favorite flavor
Hercules, Hercules!
Hercules, Hercules!
Hercules, Hercules!
[Verse 7]
Bless my soul
Herc was on a roll
Undefeated
Riding high
And the nicest guy
Not conceited
[Verse 8]
He was a nothing
A zero, zero
Now he's a hot shot
He's a hero
[Verse 9]
He hit the heights at breakneck speed
From zero to hero
Herc is a hero
Now he's a hero
Yes, indeed
