How can I easily represent a raw block of text as a string?

I created a very simple console program that mimics GLaDOS's song from the end of the game, Portal, with the audio and the words all working fine. I ran into a problem when trying to draw the logo at the end.

Is there a way to set a block of text as it is shown into a str开发者_如何学Pythoning so I may write it to the console? I know that '\n' is a newline but I want to be able to write this out easier.

This is what I have at the moment:

Console.Clear();
TypeText("thank you for participating in the Aperture Science Experiments/nPress any button for delicious cake/n
             .,-:;//;:=,
          . :H@@@MM@M#H/.,+%;,
       ,/X+ +M@@M@MM%=,-%HMMM@X/,
     -+@MM; $M@@MH+-,;XMMMM@MMMM@+-
    ;@M@@M- XM@X;. -+XXXXXHHH@M@M#@/.
  ,%MM@@MH ,@%=             .---=-=:=,.
  =@#@@@MX.,                -%HX$$%%%:;

,@M@H: :@:                    . =X#@@@@-

  /%+%$XHH@$=              , .H@@@@MX,

     =XMMM@MM@MM#H;,-+HMM@M+ /MMMX=

Use a verbatim literal string by prefixing with an "@".

You could load a textfile instead and output the contents as text.
