Still Alive (Portal cover)

from I'm Not Fat, It's Butterflies by the stragglers

lyrics

This was a triumph
I'm making a note here
Huge success
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction

Aperture Science
We do what we must because we can
For the good of all of us
Except the ones who are dead

But there's no sense crying over every mistake
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake
And we're gonna restart
With mechanical sharks
For the people who are still alive

I'm not even angry
I'm being so sincere right now
Even though you broke my heart and killed me
And tore me to pieces
And threw every piece into a fire
As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you

Now these points of data make a beautiful line
And we're out of beta
We're releasing on time
So I'm glad I got burned
Think of all the things we've learned
For the people who are still alive

Go on and leave me
I think I prefer to stay inside
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you
Maybe Black Mesa
That was a joke, you have no chance
Anyway, this cake is great
You've made a wonderful choice

Look at me still talking
When there's science to do
When I look out there, it makes me glad I'm not you
I've experiments to run
There is research to be done
On the people who are still alive
And believe me I am still alive
I'm doing science and I'm still alive
I feel fantastic and I'm still alive
And while you're dying I'll be still alive
And when you're dead I will be still alive
Still alive
Still alive
