“Telemachus’s Mom” Lyrics by Overly Sarcastic Productions is a new english song by Overly Sarcastic Productions. The song is released on Overly Sarcastic Productions’ official YouTube channel, written by Red (Overly Sarcastic Productions). This lively and humorous track reimagines elements of Homer’s Odyssey with a satirical twist, blending classical mythology with a pop-punk parody style. By playfully adapting the story of Penelope and the suitors vying for her hand, the song offers a fresh take on ancient literature with a modern, irreverent energy.
At its core, “Telemachus’s Mom” satirizes the suitors’ relentless pursuit of Penelope while drawing parallels to the 2000s hit Stacy’s Mom. Through exaggerated enthusiasm and ironic self-importance, the lyrics capture the perspective of one of the suitors, who is determined to marry Penelope now that Odysseus is presumed dead. The song balances humor with historical and literary references, making it both an entertaining parody and a clever commentary on the Odyssey. The escalating desperation of the suitor—culminating in his unexpected demise—adds a comedic twist to the classic epic’s events.

Telemachus’s Mom Lyrics
[Intro]
Telemachus’s mom has got it goin’ on
(woo!)
Telemachus’s mom has got it goin’ on
(yeah!)
Telemachus’s mom has got it goin’ on
(woohoo!)
Telemachus’s mom has got it goin’ on
(gonna marry that lady!)
[Verse 1]
Hey there bro Telemachus, heard about your dad
(Heard about your dad)
Penelope must be lonely, now that’s just too bad
(That’s too bad)
So your dad’s not back from the ten-year war?
(The Trojan War)
Well, that’s a shame – I guess
He’s not the king anymore
(King anymore)
And I know it’s a breach of hospitality
But, daddy should have thought of that before
He died at sea
(Yeah!)
[Chorus]
Penelope is so the queen for me
And I don’t need any oracle to see
Everybody knows that your dad is indisposed
(Or dead!)
So stab a cow or three so I can court Penelope
[Refrain]
Telemachus’s mom has got it goin’ on
Telemachus’s mom has got it goin’ on
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2]
Telly, do you remember how the war began?
(Probably not, cuz you were a baby!)
(The war began)
Menelaus’s wife was with another man
(A lucky man)
Now they’re back together and their love is true
(Oooh, whoa, whoa, whoa)
(It’s oh so true)
Don’t you think your mom
Deserves a love story too?
(Love story too)
And as soon as she’s finished
With her wedding veil
She’ll get a guy too smart to die from straight up
Setting sail
(Woo!)
[Chorus]
Penelope is so the queen for me
And I don’t need any oracle to see
Everybody knows that your dad is indisposed
(Or dead)
So stab a cow or three so I can court Penelope!
[Bridge]
(Oooh)
(Oooh)
(Oooh)
(Oooh)
(Oooh)
[Chorus]
Penelope is so the queen for me
(So the queen for me!)
She’s all I want and I know she wants me!
(after all, who wouldn’t?)
All I got to do is shoot
This arrow straight and true
I’ll string the bow for free so I can court
Penelope, aaaah~
(Gonna marry-)
Penelope, aaa- AGH!
(Hey, who’s that guy?)
It’s time to win the queen (WH-?! AH! UGH!)
Of that sweet homophrosyne (NOT THE FACE! NOT THE FACE! AH!)
Odysseus is gone, it’s time to marry Telly’s (AGH!) mom!
[Outro]
Hey, you look familiar-! AHH!
Telemachus’s Mom Lyrics Meaning
[Intro]
The song opens with a high-energy chant, setting the comedic and playful tone. By repeatedly emphasizing that “Telemachus’s mom has got it goin’ on,” the song immediately establishes its humorous premise while referencing Stacy’s Mom in both structure and spirit. The final line, “gonna marry that lady!” introduces the suitor’s primary goal—winning Penelope’s hand in marriage.
[Verse 1]
Here, the suitor mockingly sympathizes with Telemachus over Odysseus’ absence, treating his supposed death as an opportunity rather than a tragedy. The playful taunting (“Penelope must be lonely”) highlights the suitor’s self-serving perspective. He justifies his pursuit by suggesting that without Odysseus, the throne is vacant, and hospitality rules no longer apply. The verse cleverly incorporates historical and mythological details, blending irreverence with literary awareness.
[Chorus]
The chorus cements the suitor’s delusional confidence, declaring Penelope to be the perfect match for him. The line “I don’t need any oracle to see” humorously dismisses the prophetic elements often present in Greek mythology, emphasizing the suitor’s overconfidence. The reference to sacrificing cows alludes to the traditional Greek practice of making offerings to the gods, reinforcing the parody of ancient customs being reduced to self-serving rituals.
[Refrain]
A simple repetition of the song’s playful hook, the refrain reinforces the central theme—Telemachus’ mother (Penelope) is the ultimate prize, at least in the suitor’s eyes. The repeated chant heightens the comedic absurdity of the suitor’s perspective.
[Verse 2]
The second verse shifts to a broader reflection on the Trojan War’s origins, contrasting Helen’s reunion with Menelaus to Penelope’s situation. The suitor argues that if Helen got a love story, so should Penelope, framing his pursuit as a noble act rather than a selfish one. The closing lines humorously suggest that unlike Odysseus, he is “too smart to die from straight-up setting sail,” poking fun at Odysseus’ misfortunes and the suitor’s misplaced arrogance.
[Chorus]
Repeating the earlier chorus, this section further reinforces the suitor’s belief that Odysseus is out of the picture, making Penelope available. The lyrics maintain the humorous balance between entitlement and over-the-top devotion, echoing the absurdity of the suitors’ historical persistence.
[Bridge]
The bridge provides a brief, dramatic pause, building suspense before the final chorus. The haunting “ooh” sounds add a theatrical flair, almost as if foreshadowing the suitor’s impending downfall.
[Chorus]
The final chorus escalates the suitor’s desperation. He confidently boasts about his worthiness, declaring that he only needs to prove himself by stringing Odysseus’ bow—an ironic setup given what happens next. The exaggerated bravado reaches its peak, only to be interrupted by an unexpected twist.
[Outro]
The suitor’s dreams of winning Penelope come to a screeching halt as he suddenly realizes Odysseus has returned. His last words—“Hey, you look familiar—AHH!”—comically capture the moment of recognition and impending doom. This abrupt ending mirrors the Odyssey’s climactic scene, where Odysseus slaughters the suitors, bringing the parody full circle with a darkly humorous conclusion.
