-=Hacking Crowbars=-
-=To the tune of Jingle Bells=-

Hacking Crowbars, Hacking Crowbars, hacking all the way.
Oh what fun it is to ride in a 1 motorized buggy.
(repeat)

Dashing through city 17,
With an OCIW in hand
Over the ruins we go
Smashing all the way
Ricochets off wall to ping
Making a scary sight
Oh what fun it is to ride and sling a slaying weapon tonight.


-=We three Headcrabs=-
We three headcrabs from Zen we are
Bearing bodies we snagged from afar
Death, anniahation
Explosions, termination
Folling yonder mar

Ohhh…
Mar of blunder
Mar of blight
Mar of holy death a light
Destruction leading, hacking proceeding
Guide us to some lunch to night


-=Up on the house top=- (Half Life 2, Traptown)
Up on the house top dumpster falls
Down goes 2 combine watch them maul
Out come the weapons and other toys
All for the players for lots of joys

Oh, ho ho
Who doesn’t know
Oh, ho ho
Who doesn’t know
Up on the house top, click, click, flash
Down goes the dumpster, watch it crash

-=I’m dreaming of a sequel Half-Life=-

I’m dreaming of a sequel Half-Life
Just like the one we use to know
Where the crowbars glisten
And players listen
To hear snippets as they grow

I’m dreaming of a sequel Half-Life
With every forum thread I write
May the game be scary and fright
And may all your Half-Life’s be right

-=Freeman the Scientist=-

Freeman the scientist was a jolly happy soul
With a great paying job and a friend named bob and two crowbars made of gold
Freeman the scientist is a action hero they say
He was made from Nerd, but the players know he cane to smack-down one day
There must have been some magic in that Anti-mass Spectrometer they wound
For when it activates all hell broke loose and head crabs danced around
Oh freeman the scientist was as scarred as he could be
And the players say he it was fun to play
Just the same as you and me
Thumpety thump, thump, thumpety thump, thump,
Watch those headcrabs whoa
Thumpety thump, thump, thumpety thump, thump,
Watch those zombies grow
Freeman the scientist knew Zen was hot that day
And he said “lets run and destroy their fun before earth melts away”
Down to the teleporter with the long jump module in hand
Running here and there, giving aliens their share
Saying “Catch me if you can”
He bled them down the streets of Zen right to the real big glop
And he didn’t pause a moment when he made sure the Nihalanth drop’
For freeman the scientist was trapped by G-Man today
G-Man waved goodbye saying glad you wont die we could use you some day

-= Hack! The crashing crowbar did swing=-
Hack! The crashing crowbar did swing
Gory is the coming King!
Action on earth and action wild
Head crabs and zombies reconciled
Joyus all ye players, rise
Join the Game of the skies
With alien host who do claim
“HL2 will come from Valve”
Hack! The crashing crowbar did swing
Gory is the coming King!

HL2 by gamers highly adored
HL2 the everlasting MOD’ers Roared
Lat in time behold it come
Offspring of Gabe favored one.
Wield in CD, also on DVD
Hail the sequel we do see
Pleased as gamers with striders do dwell
Half-Life 2 will do well
Hack! The crashing crowbar did swing
Gory is the coming King!

-=We with you a merry ATI=-
We wish you as merry Voucher
We wish you as merry Voucher
We wish you as merry Voucher
And some happy new gear

Good graphic cards to you
And all of it’s friends
Graphics cars from ATI
And delay past New Year

-=Combine got run over by Gabe’s dad=-
Combine got run over by Gabe’s dad
Still play testing on Christmas Eve
You may say there’s no such thing as Half Life 2
But as for Gabe’s dad, he believe’

Dad been drinking too much Caffeine
We begged him to finish, not to go
He took his time with quick save
And stumbled out the door I do know

When they found him Christmas mornin',
At the scene of HL2 attack
There were WASD prints on his fingers
And incriminating HL2 t-shirt on his back

Combine got run over by Gabe’s Dad
Still play testing on Christmas eve
You may say theres no such thing as Half Life 2
But as for Gabe’s dad, he believe’

Now were all so proud of Gabe’s Dad
He’s playing HL2 so well
As soon as there is multiplayer
He’ll will dominate like a Bat from Hell

It’s not Christmas without Half-Life
The gifts just don’t seem that swell
And we can’t help but wonder
Should keep our ATI or send it back.

Combine got run over by Gabe’s dad
Still play testing on Christmas Eve
You may say there’s no such thing as Half Life 2
But as for Gabe’s dad, he believe’

-=O, Holy Crap=-

Oh holy crap!
The shaders are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Half-Life 2 release!

Long lay the fans in anxiousness and frustration
Till it appeared and the wait felt its worth.
A thrill of hope as weary gamers rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!

Fall on your pleas
For hear the Half Life Voices
Oh gaming tonight
Oh night when HL2 was born
Oh gaming tonight
Oh gaming tonight

-=Have your self a merry little Half Life=-
Have your self a merry little Half Life
Let crowbar not be light
From now on
Other games will be out of sight

Have your self a merry little Half Life
Doom 3 will seem gay
From now on,
Our consoles will be miles away
Here we are as in olden days
As in golden days of yore
Faithful zombies who are near to us
Will be die from us once more

Through the years the MODs will come together
If the Valve allow
Hang a shining shadier above the highest cloud
And have yourself a merry little Half Life 2.

-=Here Comes Half Life 2=-
Here comes HL2, Here comes HL2
Right down Valve lane
Game and others all his employees
Pullin’ on the reins
Crowbars ringing guns singing
All iscarry and fright
Buy your junk food and store some caffeine
‘Cause Half Life 2 comes tonight!
---------



I was going to do another one, but I'd like to see if any of you have an ounce of creativity. I'll get you started....

http://www.41051.com/xmaslyrics/mostwonder.html

Except the song is titled "The Most Wonderful Game of the Year"
 
Not HL2 related, but something else I wrote.

-=A Gansta’s 12 days of Christmas=-

On the first day of Christmas the Hood gave to me…A Cartridge in an M-16
Second…Two Bloody Gloves
Three…Frenching Jen’s
Four...Calling Detectives
Five...Golden Bling-Blings
Six…Stiff’s a laying
Seven...hallucinations swimming
Eight…maids for milking
Nine…ladies stripping
Ten…Glocks a-leaping
Eleven…Pipes for hacking
Twelve...Machine Guns Drumming
 
Neat. Odd... but neat.

BTW, I thought you died when you fell down our stove pipe last year, dude?

Meh. Must've been one of those impostors.
 
I'm glad you're all enjoying so far!


The tunes (if you could not catch on)

Hacking Crowbars=Jingle Bells
We three Headcrabs=We Three Kings
Up on the House Top=Up on the House Top
I’m Dreaming of a Sequel Half-Life=I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas
Freeman the Scientist=Frosty the Snowman
Hack! The Crashing Crowbar Swing=Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
We Wish You a Merry ATI=We Wish You a Merry Christmas
Combine Got Run Over by Gabe’s Dad=Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer
O, Holy Crap=O, Holy Night
Have Your Self a Merry Little Half Life=Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Here Comes Half Life 2=Here Comes Santa Claus
 
Aaaaaawesome work, man!!!! :cheers: *applauses*

Gotta make the family sing those songs....

Laughed heavily at the "We wish you a merry ATI" lyrics .... :cheese:
 
The Rebels sing to City-17 on Christmas night (tunes - Oh Little Town Of Bethlehem):


Oh little city seventeen, how still we see thee die
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the combine fortress lie
Yet in thy ruins running us rebels not to die
The hopes and fears of all the years are gone in thee tonight

For Alyx's father Eli, and Gordon and the rest
While they'll sleep, the G-Man keep his watch of little stress
Oh morning stars together, stop all the take of dirt
And protests sing to the Alien King, and peace to men for less

How silently, how silently, the headcrabs take a life
Strider impales some human hearts, they tried to blow his wife
All ear may hear them coming, but in this world of sin
Where weak souls will receive him still, the G-Man enters in

Where MG's pure and happy spray at the Alien kind
Where misery cries out to Thee, Son of the Combine sign
Where rebel guards stands watching and 'nades will clear the doors
The dark night wakes, the fighting breaks, and Christmas comes once more

Oh little city seventeen, descend to us, we pray
Cast out our threat, and give us rest, be ours again tonight
We hear the Combine Aliens the great glad tidings tell
Oh come to us, abide with us, our Gordon Freeman yell


Don't be so rough please, first time ever I make up a song... Took only like 15 minutes.. Come on people , start posting yer own lyrics to christmas songs!
 
Jingle bells,
Fragmaster smells,
The hacker got away,
Stole some code and ran with it,
One bright September daaaaaaay.
 
That's a start! Good job. Still waiting for someone to take on "The Most Wonderful Game of the Year" Don't make me do that one myself.




I'll email these to Valve in a couple days once there are a few more here. I'm sure it would be some great office humor over there, and would help them lighten up a bit to see some positive stuff from their fans.
 
Heh, great idea to mail all the songs to them! Let it be a christmas present for them! And be sure to post the reply in the "Info from Valve"-thread :cheese: !!

Man all these songs are giving me some sweet X-Mas vibes... Gotta do another one...
 
I made a few of these a couple of years ago... I can't remember them properly tho

When G-Man Got Stuck in the Teleport (To the tune of "When Santa got stuck in the chimney")

When G-Man got stuck in the teleport
He began to shout:
You scientists and guards
Won't get *something something* (can't remember :( )
If you don't let me out!

My hair is smoking
My suit is black
And my briefcase is somewhere on Xen!

When G-Man got stuck in the teleport
He fired you, and you, and you!


... or something. lol, I haven't sung that song for years.
Someone replace the *something something*, I can't think of anything that fits at the mo
 
Damn…you got my creativity running Santa. Awesome songs!




“The Most Wodnerful Game of the Year”
to the tune… “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year”

A box full of CS means a game full of joys
For millions of fans and for millions of bots
When Half-Life 2 is here
The most wonderful game of the year!
A headcrab in the box waits for gamers to shout,
“Wake up, don’t you know that it’s time to jump out!”
When Half-Life 2 is here
The most wonderful game of the year!
Aliens galore
Splattered on the floor
There’s no room for more
And it’s all because of Valve!
A manipulator for striders and a shotgun for zombies
The kind that unleash headcrabs like these
When Half-life 2 is here
The most Wonderful Game of the Year





It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Half Life 2
To the tune… “It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas”


It’s beginning to look a lot like Half Life 2
Ev’rewhere I go;
Take a look at the screen shots, specular once again
With rockets and explosions aglow.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Half Life 2
Game in ev’ry store,
But the prettiest site to see is the game that will be
On your own computer screen galore

A zombie wearing boots and a glock that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Gordon
Gmen that will talk and will go for a walk
And facial animation men
And Gamers and Valve can hardly wait for MODs to start again!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Half Life 2
Ev'rywhere you go;
There’s a strider at the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well,
The sturdy kind that takes a lot to blow.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Half Life 2
Soon the gaming will start,
And the thing that makes this great is the ones behind the gate
Valve within your heart.
 
Hey, really nice phantom. You had me going Ho, Ho, Ho!!! Then you forced me to write another one, JERK!!!




-=Silver Guns=-
-=Tune : Silver Bells=-



City Rubbles, busy ashes
Dressed in Half Life 2 style
In the air
There’s a feeling
Of Half Life
Rifles blazing
Combine passing
Meeting guard after guard
And on every street corner you’ll hear

Blazing Guns, Blazing Guns
It’s combine fortress in the city
Rat-a-tat, hear them shoot
Soon it will be Half Life 2

Strings of ammo
Even rockets
Flash in bright red and orange
As the resistance rush
Around with their rifles

Hear the buildings crunch
See the Striders’ lunch
This is G-man’s big scene
And above all this bustle
You’ll hear

Blazing Guns, Blazing Guns
It’s combine fortress in the city
Rat-a-tat, hear them shoot
Soon it will be Half Life 2
 
i hope you dont have kids :cheese:

wtf first one works if you say "buggay" instead of buggy
 
half-life aliens
[to the tune of Angels We Have Heard On High]

headcrabs we have seen before
are coming back to attack our heads
scary in the days of yore
from their claws many people bled

chorus:
go-o-o-o-o-o-o-ordon freeman
whack them with your crowbar
go-o-o-o-o-o-o-ordan freeman
whack them with your crowbar

zombies walking down the hall
moving at the pace of a crawl
innocent victims they will maul
they'll return to eat us all
chorus

ichthyosaurs were swimming 'round
eating scientists that they found
killing quietly without a sound
watch your step and stay on the ground
chorus

houndeyes jumping and barking with glee
we almost thought they weren't mean
then they blasted us with their scream
but in half-life 2 they won't be seen ;(
chorus

barnacles hung on the ceiling
they captured people with their sticky tongues
pay attention while you're walking
then shoot 'em with your choice of gun
chorus

gonarch met us up on xen
with headcrabs in her nasty sac
she ran around and crushed some men
shoot her down and don't look back
chorus

nihilanth floated over the ground
even after we opened his head
he turned and spun 'round and 'round
gordon attacked and he was dead
chorus

g-man stopped by at the end
when we thought that we would win
he always had an evil grin
we hope to see him back again
chorus

half-life 2 is coming next year
complete with aliens galore
it will bring us lots of cheer
dust off that crowbar and swing it some more
chorus
 
(Sung by a headcrab)
I saw Gordon kissing Alyx Vance (Tunes- I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus)

I saw Gordon kissing Alyx Vance
Underneath the robot Dog last night

They didn't see me crawl
Down the stairs to facehug all;

They thought that I was dead
on the concrete I had bled

Then, I saw Gordon tickle Alyx Vance
Right there on her shirt so brown and blue;

Oh, what a laugh it would have been
If Eli had only seen

Gordon kissing Alyx Vance last night
 
This is awesome!! This is great!!

I bet more of you out there have a few ounces of creativity! Lets see some more!!!
 
Deck the Halls with Headcrab Bodies (to the tune of Deck the Halls, obviously, heh)

Deck the halls with headcrab bodies
falalalala, lalalala
Tis the season for more zombies
falalalala, lalalala
Don we now our awesome crowbar
falala, lalala, la la la
Hoping Half-Life 2 is not far
falalalala, lalalala

Let's all go to City 17
falalalala, lalalala
Watch the people as they scream
falalalala, lalalala
Kill the strider, smile with glee
falala, lalala, la la la
Make a strider christmas tree
falalalala, lalalala

Find the manhacks; kill some of them
falalalala, lalalala
String them up into a garland
falalalala, lalalala
Hang them on your christmas tree
falala, lalala, la la la
Now we've made it oh-so-pretty
falalalala, lalalala

G-man comes in drab apparel
falalalala, lalalala
Shoot him... ack! he's made of metal :cheese:
falalalala, lalalala
Grab his suitcase; hit his head
hahaha, hahaha, hahaha
Oops, he's got me, now I'm dead
falala....ugh...bleh... :x


O Half-Life 2 (to the tune of O Christmas Tree, or O Tannenbaum, whatever you wanna call it)

O Half-Life 2, O Half-Life 2
How lovely are your screenshots
O Half-Life 2, O Half-Life 2
How lovely are your screenshots
They kept us happy through summer days
But now we're sad from the delay ;(
O Half-Life 2, O Half-Life 2
How lovely are your screenshots

O Half-Life 2, O Half-Life 2
How lovely are your physics
O Half-Life 2, O Half-Life 2
How lovely are your physics
We want to try it for ourselves
But Half-Life 2's not on the shelves ;(
O Half-Life 2, O Half-Life 2
How lovely are your physics
 
well, it started funny-ish, but then i got tired :sleep:
basically to the tune of "Oh Holt Night".

Oh Holy Valve
O holy valve, your games are brightly shining
But when's the night of Gordon's second birth?
Long lays the world in CoD and DX2 pining
Till he appears and my 9800pro feels its worth.

A thrill of hope, we once were all rejoicing
For yonder seemed a new crowbar's whack

We fell on our knees!
To hear the Gaben voices!
But night defiled!
Oh the night the Source was hacked!
Oh night defiled!
Oh night, oh night reviled!

Led by the call of totally pissed-off Gaben
With helpless hands by Gaben's side we stood
So led to the light of a Dane's damn dirty cave.. "n"
Or was it a Swede? (Ehh, are either any good?)

Here flocked the fools to forums such as this one
Even King of Kings, Lil' Timmy comes here too!

You could fall on a keyboard!
And make a better song!
Oh night boring!
Oh the night I typed this poo!
Oh I might cry!
Or better yet, I'll eat some pie!

-fin
 
Good ones DFC05

Lil' Timmy: First half is great. Maybe come back to the second half at a later time.
 
This is heavy.

I need to learn how to rap.:afro:
 
Have yourself a merry lil' Crowbar (to the tunes of Have yourself a merry little christmas, duh)

Have yourself a deadly little Crowbar,
Let your swing be light

From now on,
All zombies will be out of sight

Have yourself a deadly little Crowbar,
Make the Combine 'fraid,

From now on,
all manhacks will be miles away.

There they run as in happy days,
happy reddish days of gore.

Fearful friends who are dear to us
gather near to us once more.

Through the years we all will be together
If the Troops allow

Hang a shining star upon a Striders gun.
And have yourself a merry little Crowbar now



Come on guys, we gotta keep this thread alive! Use your imagination! Be creative!
 
Santa sure is bringing some holiday cheer. I'm sure we can get a couple more entries for the list, so don't send this off just yet Santa!
 
this is too much fun :D

Half-Life Time is Here (to the tune of Christmas Time is Here -- from Charlie Brown Christmas)

Half-Life time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all, that gamers call
The best game of the year

Manhacks in the air
Headcrabs everywhere
Olden times, now with Combines
And G-man's evil stare

Barnacles up there
Zombies claws will tear
People run, from Strider's gun
And we all scream with fear

Half-Life time is here
Happiness and cheer
People mope, but we all hope
That Half-Life 2 is near
 
Ho, Ho, Ho. We got more!!!

Cut off time is 1:00 AM CST on December 6th, 2003. So get your Half Life Christmas carols ready if you want them to be in the package!!! After that time, I'll get to work preparing them in a neat layout and send them off to Valve.

P.S. Should I send it directly to Gabe Newell? I know he does reply to some emails.
 
I’ve gotten a head start on the ‘publication.’ You may view it attached below. I tied to order it as best as I could, so no one complain please. Some submissions were incomplete, and were omitted. If your song was omitted, please try to complete it before 1:00 am.
 
Okay, very neato! I'm going to do one more song , but I'm not really sure what time 1 PM CST is ... is it -7.00 EST ?
 
CST is –600 GMT. I said 1:00 AM tomorrow, so you have approximately 17:20 left. EST is -500 GMT, so I think that is 2:00 am EST.
 
Okay, nice! This is so damn fun I might do a little more songs!
Anyhow , just made this one:

The Half-Life Song (Headcrabs) ; Tunes- The Christmas Song (Chestnuts)

Headcrabs roasting on an open fire
Kelly Bailey nipping at your ears
Combine carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Alien Slaves

Everybody knows a zombie and some
Nihilanth help to make the season bright
Combine troops with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Gabe is on his way
He's loaded lots of games and crowbars
On his sleigh
And every Half-Life Fan
is gonna spy to see if
Lombardi really know how to fly

And so, I'm offering this
Simple phrase to nerds from
One to ninety-two
Altho' it's been said many times
Many ways
“Merry Half-Life to you!”
 
Awesome! I'll add that one 4 sure :)

I just noticed that we do have quite a large collection, but not many contributors. Maybe a moderator could change the title of this thread to "Christmas Carols: Half-Life 2"
