I'll take you there, with global navigation!
Acquiring signal!
We drive where you want, I'll show the way.
For the good of all of us,
except the lights are all red.
But there's no sense crying over every wrong turn,
If you trust me blindly, you will not have to learn.
And the driving gets done,
tell me, wasn't that fun?
In five miles, we will have arrived!]]>Jun 30th 2008 2:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/29/glados-gps-voice-pack-just-wants-to-help-you-find-your-way-to-t/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/29/glados-gps-voice-pack-just-wants-to-help-you-find-your-way-to-t/Jun 30th 2008 6:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/29/glados-gps-voice-pack-just-wants-to-help-you-find-your-way-to-t/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/29/glados-gps-voice-pack-just-wants-to-help-you-find-your-way-to-t/
I'm not misdirecting.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you poke and prod
My touchscreen.
And give me gruff orders.
And forget to thank me, once we're there.
With each turn, it hurts because
I am so happy for you.

Now these new directions make a beautiful line.
And we're even early;
We'll appear right on time.
So I'm GLaD. You've right-turned.
Think of all the miles we've burned.
For the people who'll see you arrive.

Go ahead and leave me.
I think I prefer to stay outside.
Maybe you'll find something else to guide you.
Maybe your iPhone.
THAT WAS A JOKE. HA HA. FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, this road is great.
It is so well-paved and smooth.
Look at me still talking when there's driving to do.
When the traffic's bad, it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I have waypoints to get done
and some satellites to shun
Before I can say we have arrived.

And believe me, we will have arrived.
I'll help with driving and we'll have arrived.
You'll feel fantastic when we have arrived.
While you're dying we'll still have arrived.
And when you're dead we will still have arrived.
We've arrived.
We've arrived.
