D Bm (repeat like crazy) 
This was a triumph 

D Bm (repeat) 
I’m making a note here: huge success 

Em              A 
It’s hard to overstate my satisfaction 

D Bm (repeat) 
Aperture Science 

We do what we must because we can 

Em              A 
For the good of all of us

Except the ones who are dead 

F                     C          Bb         F 
But there’s no sense crying over every mistake 

F                     C          Bb         F 
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake 

Gm                     C             F        Dm 
And the science gets done and you make a neat gun 

Bb                   A         D  Bm (repeat some more) 
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 learned 
For the people who are still alive 

Go ahead and leave me 
I think I’d prefer to stay inside 
Maybe you’ll find someone else to help you 
Maybe Black Mesa 
That was a joke, ha ha, fat chance 
Anyway this cake is great 
It’s so delicious and moist 
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
