  [molokov]
  we wish, no must, make our disgust
  at this abuse perfectly clear.
  we're here for chess -- are the u.s.?
  if so, why foul the
  atmosphere?
  
  [florence]
  i must protest -- our delegation has a host of valid points to
  raise,
  our player's sporting attitude's beyond all praise,
  as any neutral would attest
  but we concede the fact his masters bend the rules is not
  a player's fault --
  we'll overlook their crude political assault
  and under protest will proceed
  
  [molokov]
  we wish, no must, make our disgust
  at this abuse perfectly clear
  we're here for chess -- are the u.s.?
  how can you make such a
  claim?
  
  [molokov]
  
  if your man's so sweet
  then why his fighting talk?
  if he's not a cheat
  then why on earth
  did he go take a walk?
  
  [arbiter]
  
  point 17
  no one-way screen
  will be allowed
  in the hall
  
  [molokov]
  why let him loose?
  he'll soon reduce
  this great event
  to a brawl
  
  it's very sad
  to see the ancient and
  distinguished game
  that used to be
  
  [florence]
  
  i am not surprised
  he wanted fresher air
  once he realized
  there was no hope
  of your lot playing fair
  how sad
  to see
  what used
  to be
  
  [both]
  a model of decorum and tranquillity
  become like any other sport
  a battleground for rival ideologies
  to slug it out with glee
  
  [the russian]
  through the elegant yelling
  disgust
  of this compelling dispute
  clear
  comes the ghastly suspicion
  are the u.s.?
  my opposition's a fruit
  atmosphere?
  
  [molokov]
  we wish, no must, make our
  
  at this abuse perfectly
  
  we're here for chess --
  
  if so, why foul the
  
  [florence]
  
  i don't suppose
  you'd understand the strain and pressure
  getting where he's got
  for then you'd simply call him
  highly strung and not
  imply that he was one of those
  
  [arbiter]
  
  point 23
  the board will be
  made in sweden
  non-aligned wood
  
  [the russian]
  but how can you
  work for one who
  waiting here
  treats you like dirt?
  pay must be good
  is our
  
  [molokov]
  it seems to us
  there's little point in
  
  all night for his return
  and since a peaceful match
  
  sole concern
  
  [florence]
  
  i'm not getting rich
  my only interest
  is in something which
  gives me the chance
  of working with the best
  
  [molokov]
  we won't make an official fuss
  
  in short we rise
  above your guy's
  tantrums, dramas,
  dirty tricks
  
  [the russian]
  
  i can only say
  i hope your dream comes true
  till that far-off day
  i hope you cope
  with helping number two.
  
  [arbiter]
  
  point 31
  no game begun
  by noon goes on
  after six
  
  [the russian & florence]
  how sad
  to see
  
  [arbiter & molokov]
  it's very sad to see
  the ancient and distinguished game that used to be
  
  [all]
  a model of decorum and tranquillity
  become like any other sport
  a battleground for rival ideologies
  to slug it out with glee
