You want your freedom?
Take it.
That's what I'm counting on

Likely GLaDOS deciding Chell is not worth the trouble of keeping, as she already managed to defeat GLaDOS twice. Instead of attempting to kill Chell anymore, GLaDOS decides she wants Chell to leave, so she can test without worrying about having her core replaced or being set on fire again.

Everything clean.
Nothing on fire.
All by my self... Finally
Nothing on fire.
All by my self... Finally
Reference to Portal 1 and 2, in which the player, as Chell, escapes Aperture testing facilities, usually destroying a large portion of it in the process. May also reference throwing glados into the flames at the end of the first Portal game.

You just keep on trying
'til you run out of cake.
And the science gets done
'til you run out of cake.
And the science gets done
Reference to the offering of cake to each of the test subjects for when they complete the tests. However, as it is later revealed, and the internet could not remain quiet about, this was false. Also see top explanation, in which it is supposedly people that GLaDOS is speaking of.

At least a hundred and fifty or more to see
Reference to the Pokedex containing precisely 151 Pokemon in the first generation games. The "one hundred and fifty or more to see" shows not all Pokemon were easily known of. (Namely, at the time, Mew, the New Species Pokemon, which was nearly impossible to obtain in the games without glitches.).

Porygon
Normal-type Pokemon found in the first generation. Tends to be relatively rare, regardless of which game you are using. Was actually not aired in any episodes except one, which is now banned. This is due to the flashing lights and colors causing seizures, and this also removes Porygon2 and Porygon-Z (Porygon's future evolutions) from the anime. Only pokemon to evolve through trade twice.

Alakazam
Psychic-type Pokemon introduced in the first generation. Final evolution of the Abra line. Is a reference to the words "Abracadabra Alakazam", often associated with magic, along with both of its pre-evolutions, fittingly named Abra and Kadabra. Spoons held are in reference to a common magic trick that consists of seemingly bending a spoon with one's mental force and nothing else, which is further shown in the move Telekinesis. Capable of Mega Evolution as of Pokemon X and Y, in which it gets 3 extra spoons.

What you're calling a sin, isn't up to them
This is in reference to the previous line, "friends locked in boxes." This takes a shot on trying to use religion to paint homosexuality as a sin, and says it is not meant to be a choice, but just how the person is. And they have no control over it.

But between the drinks and subtle things
And the holes in my apologies
You know I'm trying hard to take it back
And the holes in my apologies
You know I'm trying hard to take it back
This is the singer attempting to reconcile with whomever he managed to wound, trying to do whatever he can to ensure the woman can successfully "try to forget" what happened. To put it simply, he is trying to fix a mistake that he made, and, based on the line "the holes in my apologies" he is not doing nearly as good a job as he hopes.
