His eyes are cold and restless
His pride has almost healed
And she'd give half of Texas
Just to change the way he feels
She knows his love's with X-Box
And she knows he's gonna go
Well, it ain't no girl, flesh and blood
It's that damned old Halo

Well, it's bullets and blood
It's worthogs and mud
It's the roar of a Scorpion
It's the white in his knuckles
The colors in the buttons
He'll win the next go 'round
It's Zanzabar and a super-jump
A victory corpse hump
Plasma pistols and grenades
Buildings and terrain
The joy and the pain
And they call the thing Halo

She does her best to hold him
When his love comes to call
But his need for it controls him
And her back's against the wall
And it's So long girl, I'll call you
When it's time for him to go
You know the girl wants her gamer
Like he wants his Halo

Well, it's bullets and blood
It's worthogs and mud
It's the roar of a Scorpion
It's the white in his knuckles
The colors in the buttons
He'll win the next go 'round
It's Zanzabar and a super-jump
A victory corpse hump
Plasma pistols and grenades
Buildings and terrain
The joy and the pain
And they call the thing Halo

It'll drive a gamer crazy
It'll drive a boy insane
And he'll sell off everything he owns
Just to get the latest game
And a tired mind and some worn out eyes
Is all he'll have to show
For all the time that he spent playin'
This game they call Halo

Well, it's bullets and blood
It's worthogs and mud
It's the roar of a Scorpion
It's the white in his knuckles
The colors in the buttons
He'll win the next go 'round
It's Zanzabar and a super-jump
A victory corpse hump
Plasma pistols and grenades
Buildings and terrain
The joy and the pain
And they call the thing Halo

It's the rifles and the blood
It's the bodies and the mud
And they call the thing Halo
