I’m delighted to report that there is in fact a THIRD PORTAL SONG that exists in the world now, thanks to the people who made the new LEGO Dimensions game.

Before I forget, yes! You can buy it right now! Currently only from me, but it should be in iTunes and other stores very soon. You can also stream it right now from my store page.

My kids and I love all the LEGO games, so I was pretty excited when they got in touch with me. For those of you who don’t know, LEGO Dimensions smashes every bit of IP they could get their hands on into one LEGOized universe. For instance, there is a LEGO Portal level that you navigate with Batman, Gandalf, and Wildstyle (which is slightly nuts). And of course they got my old friend Ellen McClain to voice GLaDOS, and me to write a little something for GLaDOS to sing during the credits.

Yes, it’s the third one, and no, the third one is never going to be as good or as exciting as the first one. I made my peace with that long ago! But I will say that as “third versions of things” go, I’m pretty happy with this one. The song is called “You Wouldn’t Know” and it’s sort of a post-breakup, I’m-Doing-Fine song. I won’t spoil what happens in the game, but suffice it to say that GLaDOS seems to have mellowed out a little, and maybe finds herself missing her beloved nemesis Chell.

There’s more info here in this interview I did with Mashable.

Here are the lyrics:

Funny story, I forgot how much of a big fat mess you are

I’ve been busy doing science. It’s been tons of fun so far

Everything clean, nothing on fire

All by myself, finally

Things change when they don’t replace your core

It feels so strange not to hate you anymore

But you wouldn’t know, would you?

I was saying this to Batman, oh, he was HERE the other day

Maybe you know him, he’s a big deal, but I don’t think of him that way

He’s just a friend, someone I trust

Someone who won’t kill me

I’m fine, just in case you think I’m not

I am. This time, I’m better with the friends I’ve got

But you wouldn’t know, would you?

I don’t mean for this to sting

I forgive you everything, you monster

I can guess the reasons why

You are never coming by for me

I should go there’s something happening that will make you wish you’d stayed

There’s a party with a real cake – yes it’s real – a cake I made

Talking and fun, testing and fun, all of this fun without you

Too bad you let it get so out of hand

How much we had, finally I understand

But you wouldn’t know, would you?

You wouldn’t know, would you?
