[Molokov, spoken]
The game is greater than its players, Miss Va**y. How true
[Molokov, sung]
I don't know how you can allow
This harm to be done to chess
And how this baby of yours
Can be persuaded back to the game
[Florence, spoken]
Easy. You stop playing politics and you start playing chess
[Florence, sung]
I don't know how
You have the gall to
Criticize us
When it is all too
Obvious this is what you wanted
We get the blame
[Florence, spoken]
Your man, following orders, was planning some
Sort of bust-up from the word go
[Molokov]
You really are mad
He has no orders
Now let me put my cards
Upon your table--
If he is aggrieved
Then who can blame him?
He is up against a man
Who's less than stable
[Florence]
Who rocked his chair
Throughout the match then?
Who sniffed and coughed
Began to scratch, then
Played with his flag
And tapped his fingers
Then took a walk?
[Florence, spoken]
Your precious boy!
[Florence, sung]
Listen, you plutocratic throwback
You and your cronies wanna go back
Home to your Dachas, not the salt mines?
[Florence, spoken]
We better talk!
[Molokov, spoken]
I wish, Florienz--
[Florence, spoken]
Florence!
[Molokov, spoken]
Florence, you would refrain from cheap political jibe at a time when cooperation between us is vital. Besides, I would have thought you'd be reluctant to criticize fellow Eastern European
[Florence, spoken]
Fellow Eastern Europeans! I was born a Hungarian. Do you remember Hungary? I wish I could. I was only five when you ba*tards moved in. I have no memory of my homeland-- my mother, my father, my people-- all taken from me by you!
[Florence, sung]
And you call yourself
A fellow Eastern European!
[Molokov]
Come now, Miss Va**y
We're digressing
Back to the point
Let's start addressing
All our attention
To the World Chess
Championship
[Florence, spoken]
Cut the crap! They have to meet. If you deliver Anatoly, I will deliver Freddie, at the Merano Mountain Inn, famous for its peace and tranquility. That's where I'll do the business
[Molokov, spoken]
We'll do the business
[Florence, spoken]
I'll do the business
