[00:00.80]	{MOLOKOV}
[00:01.06]	We wish, no, must, make our disgust
[00:06.38]	With this abuse perfectly clear
[00:12.10]	We're here for chess
[00:14.98]	Are the U.S.?
[00:17.76]	If so, why foul the atmosphere?
[00:22.82]	{FLORENCE}
[00:23.25]	I must protest-- our delegation
[00:25.75]	Has a host of valid points to raise
[00:28.12]	{THE ARBITER}
[00:28.58]	It's not just black and white
[00:29.85]	If I may coin a phrase
[00:31.13]	As any neutral would attest
[00:32.95]	{FLORENCE}
[00:33.50]	But we concede
[00:34.65]	The fact his masters bend the rules
[00:36.39]	Is not your player's fault
[00:38.40]	We'll overlook your crude political assault
[00:40.98]	And under protest we'll proceed
[00:42.50]	{MOLOKOV}
[00:42.69]	If your man's so sweet
[00:44.48]	Then why his fighting talk?
[00:46.22]	If he's not a cheat
[00:48.23]	Then why on earth did he go take a walk?
[00:51.11]	{FLORENCE}........................{MOLOKOV}
[00:51.33]	I am not surprised.............../Why let him loose?
[00:53.20]	He wanted fresher air............/He’ll soon reduce
[00:54.92]	Once he realized................./This great
[00:56.80]	There was no hope................/Event
[00:58.20]	Of your lot playing fair........./To a brawl
[00:59.58]	{FLORENCE & ANATOLY}........{MOLOKOV & ARBITER}
[00:59.90]	How sad...................../It’s very sad to see
[01:02.65]	To........................../The ancient and distinguished
[01:03.98]	See........................./Game that used to be
[01:04.98]	{ALL}
[01:05.19]	A model of decorum and tranquility
[01:07.93]	Become like any other sport--
[01:09.90]	A battleground for rival ideologies
[01:12.96]	To slug it out with glee
[01:14.34]	{ANATOLY}
[01:15.67]	I would say with regard
[01:20.69]	To him, it is hard to rebut
[01:26.59]	Ever-growing suspicions
[01:32.04]	My opposition's a nut
[01:37.54]	{FLORENCE}
[01:37.76]	I would have said
[01:39.14]	You'd understand the strain
[01:40.22]	And pressure getting where he's got
[01:42.51]	For then you'd simply call him highly strung
[01:44.72]	And not imply that he was off his head
[01:47.11]	{ANATOLY}
[01:47.32]	But how on earth can someone even
[01:49.41]	Half as civilized and nice as you
[01:51.76]	Be part of such a self-destructive point of view?
[01:54.32]	I hope he pays you what you're worth
[01:56.39]	{FLORENCE}................................{MOLOKOV}
[01:56.64]	I'm not getting rich.................../Okay, we’ll rise
[01:59.24]	My only interest is..................../Above your guy’s
[02:01.29]	In something which................./Tantrums
[02:02.82]	Gives me the chance................/Dramas
[02:04.14]	Of working with the best......./Dirty tricks
[02:05.60]	{ANATOLY}
[02:05.76]	I can only say
[02:07.59]	I hope your dream comes true
[02:09.02]	Till that far-off day
[02:11.34]	I hope you cope
[02:12.22]	With helping number two
[02:13.65]	{FLORENCE & ANATOLY}........{MOLOKOV & ARBITER}
[02:14.00]	How sad...................................../It’s very sad to see
[02:16.19]	To................................................./The ancient and distinguished
[02:18.00]	See.............................................../Game that used to be
[02:18.79]	{ALL}
[02:19.11]	A model of decorum and tranquility
[02:21.33]	Become like any other sport--
[02:23.17]	A battleground for rival ideologies
