[Intro: Gabe Newell, Ellen McLain]
Is this what you've been waiting for?
Say "One, two, and four"!
(You're bound to count to one, two)
(You're bound to count to one, two)
(You're bound to count to one, two)
(Guess what comes after)

[Verse 1: The Stupendium]
Hi again, I'm Gabe N
A fan of shooters, wizard of computers
And a handsome man!
Your grandfather used to blather
'Bout him a thousand years ago
Wasn't easy, keeping busy
Every season brings another reason not to make a game!
Oh, why bother, just another
Wasted day in studio

[Verse 2: The Stupendium]
I had it all but tried new things, true
It didn't get us very far
Between controllers and machines, you
Still picked a rusty old crowbar!
Nobody sees beyond my charming self
A soul that’s never truly free
So, just for oncе, forget the summer salе
And give it up for Half-Life... Alyx
[Chorus]
The valve's been stuck, corroded by the money
Has not been oiled for years
We didn't even hope to see it running
But now you're bound to learn how to
But now you're bound to learn how to
This time you're bound to count to
Three!

(You're bound to count to one, two)
(You're bound to count to one, two)
(You're bound to count to one, two)
(Guess what's coming after)

[Verse 3: Ellen McLain]
Well, here we are again
Except we're long forgotten
My circuits niggling up
And down my spine
He said, "it's worth the wait"
His weight keeps pressing harder
But Alyx gave us hope
We’ll rise and shine!

[Chorus: Ellen McLain]
For soulless card games
And hardware releases
The light's been turning green
Life gave you lemons
Take them out the freezer
This time you’re bound to learn how to
This time you’re bound to learn how to
This time you’re bound to count
[Bridge: The Stupendium]
The numbers are intimidating
It's hard to give a fresh new start
When everyone’s anticipating
Another masterpiece of art!
If this machine keeps playing dead, we
May end up on the other side
So hold on to all your hats, let’s
Show 'em a triple-A done right!

[Verse 4]
The valve's been stuck
Corroded by the money
But after many years
We can't believe the
Engine started running
This time he's bound to count to three!

[Chorus: The Stupendium, Holly Turton, All]
Full steam ahead
We'll end this idle running
Let's give the valve a spin!
We've got some work to do
So take this, honey!
This time you're bound to learn how to
This time you're bound to learn how to
This time you're bound to count to
Three!
