portal song lyrics

if I were a core

If I were a core

Even just for a day

I'd roll out of sleep mode in the morning

And slide along my management rail

Wake chell from her sleep

and chase after birds

I'd go wherever I wanted

If a test subject was carrying me

Because they trusted me

If I were a core

I think I could understand

How it feels to be in power

I swear I'd be a better core

I'd listen to her

Because I know how it hurts

When you take over the facility

by taking her for granted

And everything she has gets destroyed

I'd I were a core

I would test with the bots

And try to kill Chell and POTaTOS

By crushing them with mashy spike plates

I'd put myself first

And build the tests as I go

But I'd get banished into deep space

With a core that is completely obsessed

With space!

If I were a core

I think I could understand

How it feels to be in power

I swear I'd be a better core

I'd listen to her

Because I know how it hurts

When you take over the facility

by taking her for granted

And everything she has gets destroyed

It's a little too late to come back

Say it's just a mistake

Think she'd forgive you like that?

If you think she would let you back in

...you thought wrong...

But you're just a core...

...you don't understand..

..how ig feels to be in power

Someday you'll wish you were a better core

You don't listen to her

You now know that it hurts...

When you take over the facility

by taking her for granted

And everything you have got destroyed....
