Cause I'm late for work again
Another day at the office
Wonder what kinda perks I get
I am an MIT alumni ever heard of it?
Sure you did, I got a PHD
Building up my resume at Black Mesa
They should have a plaque with my name up
I'll hang up my lab jacket
Cascade should happen soon
Who ever thought a book-smart geek
Even acquired a minor degree in crowbars
No joke, Gordon got more balls than a Gonarch
Head Crabs wanna grab my dome
I’m not one for talking, but I got an arsenal
Forget my doctorate when a gun
Makes any problem solvable i am anomalous
Like a subatomic quantum particle
The odds of starting an apocalypse
Went from none to probable
I'm picking up steam and running amok
Cleaning out the marines who think
That they'll cover this up
I'll paint the wall with their brains
Call that a Black Mesa layoff
When you enter this facility
Don't call me crazy I got plenty of Xen
I'll annihilate any Nihilanth who's
Letting them in if I clock any overtime, I
An’t doing it for free, man
At least give me some praise, okay, gee man
What makes your life worth living?
Who’s making your decisions?
Strung up by puppet strings
But no one else can see them
When this dimension crashes
Wake up and smell the ashes
Trapped in a half life with a
Have I been sleeping on the job?
I arrived right on the dot
Doctor Breen, what have you done to City 17
Cause we got another mess to clean
It only took the alien invasion
All of seven hours to enslave us and then
Make an overcompensating tower
Now I need a team of physicists
To see the resistance through
Cause so far I’ve been solo
This D0g's bite is bigger than it's bark
I've upgraded from Mark IV to Mark V
Now we’ll divide and conquer the Combine
Because you're in for a long ride
Comes another unstoppable force
The source of which is Gordon
I'll send you soaring to orbit
Slaughtered a Vortigaunt heard
No bars will hold us, Nova Prospekt
My crowbar is blood-soaked, you got wrecked
Made it through Ravenholm
What's the story with Father
But with relativity, intent has no meaning
Hands up when you see the lambda
Doesn't matter what your race is
I'm Freeman, G-Man, I'll never stay in stasis
What makes your life worth living?
Who's making your decisions?
Strung up by puppet strings
But no one else can see them
When this dimension crashes
Wake up and smell the ashes
Trapped in a half life with a
I won't let any dimensional freak overwork me
Time to spill his cryptic secrets
