[Florence]
Well, we can't complain that
You've been ignored by the press
[Freddie]
What'd they say? What'd they say?
[Florence]
They're not too polite
[Freddie]
They say I'm a sh**?
[Florence, spoken]
Well, yes. They pulled you to pieces--
[Florence, sung]
In five different languages
The Times: "You thrive on unpleasantness."
[Florence, spoken]
Le Monde: “Frederick Trumper, la honte des écheques.”
[Freddie]
I don't believe that they can't see my game
I'm like that tennis player
What's-his-name?
They love to hate me
And for us that's dollars!
[Florence, spoken]
Die Welt: "Trumper: Der wilde Junge des Schachs."
[Freddie]
Hey, look, here's a piece that
Some idiot's written on you
[Freddie, spoken]
"Florence Va**y, petite Hungarian-born personal a**istant …”
[Freddie, sung]
“ … his gentle companion--"
If they only knew!
[Florence, spoken]
What do you mean? I've always been gentle with you, Freddie
[Both]
“She stands by her champion …”
[Freddie, spoken]
Oh, I like this
[Both]
“… whose demands
Are so infantile.”
[Freddie, spoken]
I don't like this
[Florence]
If you don't like it, then it's up to you
They like the Russian, they could like you too
[Freddie]
Commie newspapers
Of course the ba*tards all support the Russian
[Florence]
But Sergievsky seems a sweet opponent
So why do you abuse him all the time?
[Florence, spoken]
Freddie, I love you very much, but just for once don't go on about the Russians at the press conference, okay?
