| Album | 1985 Demo Tape |
| Vocal：John Flansburgh | |
| What's gonna happen to Chess Piece Face | |
| There go I but for my face | |
| All I know could be defaced by the facts in the life of Chess Piece Face | |
| I don't know where he lives | |
| Or if he knows to sail | |
| Or if little schemes like this one ever cross his trail | |
| But I don't believe he's dreaming | |
| Or if he cares to know | |
| So I shudder* in my lampshade | |
| So, what's gonna happen to Chess Piece Face | |
| There I go but for my face | |
| All I know could be defaced by the facts in the life of Chess Piece Face | |
| Chess Piece Face | |
| Chess Piece Face | |
| Chess Piece Face | |
| Notes | |
| *This might conceivably be 'shutter.' | |
| Some live versions add an 'all hail' at the beginning of the last line. |
