{EMBASSY OFFICIALS} |
[00:06.09] |
Oh, my dear how boring |
[00:07.49] |
He's defecting |
[00:08.83] |
Just like all the others |
[00:10.19] |
He's expecting |
[00:11.71] |
Us to be impressed |
[00:12.77] |
With what he's done here |
[00:14.62] |
But he hasn't stopped |
[00:15.97] |
To think about the paperwork |
[00:17.33] |
His gesture causes-- |
[00:18.23] |
We've an embassy to run here |
[00:19.73] |
If these people can't strike |
[00:21.04] |
Blows for freedom |
[00:22.55] |
With a valid visa |
[00:23.94] |
We don't need 'em |
[00:25.53] |
If we seem offhand |
[00:26.64] |
Then please remember |
[00:28.48] |
This is nothing very special |
[00:30.26] |
He's the fourth we've had |
[00:31.26] |
Since last November |
[00:32.16] |
Who do these foreign Chappies think they are? |
[00:35.74] |
{OFFICIAL #1} |
[00:36.04] |
And when he's safely in the West |
[00:40.85] |
He'll be the subject to discuss |
[00:42.55] |
The media will lionize him |
[00:44.11] |
Fame and fortune plus |
[00:45.51] |
{EMBASSY OFFICIALS} |
[00:45.72] |
No-one will recall |
[00:46.78] |
It's thanks to us |
[00:50.14] |
{OFFICIAL #1, spoken} |
[00:50.27] |
You have a wife? |
[00:51.59] |
{ANATOLY, spoken} |
[00:51.67] |
Yes |
[00:52.52] |
{OFFICIAL #3, spoken} |
[00:52.55] |
You have two children? |
[00:54.11] |
{ANATOLY, spoken} |
[00:54.24] |
Yes |
[00:54.81] |
{OFFICIAL #2, spoken} |
[00:55.03] |
And they're not coming with you? |
[00:56.34] |
{ANATOLY, spoken} |
[00:56.51] |
No, not for the moment |
[00:57.78] |
{OFFICIAL #4, spoken} |
[00:57.98] |
You play chess. You are good at it? |
[01:00.16] |
{OFFICIAL #3 whispers in #4's ear} |
[01:01.66] |
{OFFICIAL #4, spoken} |
[01:01.86] |
Oh. I hear you're world champion |
[01:04.69] |
{ANATOLY, spoken} |
[01:04.89] |
Since yesterday |
[01:05.97] |
{EMBASSY OFFICIALS, spoken} |
[01:06.63] |
That's still good |
[01:09.15] |
(sung) |
[01:09.98] |
Have you an appointment |
[01:11.66] |
With the consul? |
[01:13.20] |
If you don't we know |
[01:14.24] |
What his response'll be |
[01:16.40] |
He will not see you-- |
[01:17.70] |
With respect it buggers up |
[01:19.25] |
His very taxing schedule |
[01:21.50] |
Pushing peace and understanding |
[01:22.93] |
Let us hope this won't affect it |
[01:24.64] |
Far too many jokers cross the border |
[01:29.02] |
Not a single document in order |
[01:32.05] |
Russia must be empty |
[01:33.47] |
Though we're all for |
[01:35.06] |
Basic human rights |
[01:37.28] |
It makes you wonder |
[01:37.64] |
What they built the Berlin Wall for-- |
[01:39.12] |
Who do these foreign Chappies think they are? |
[01:42.45] |
And when you've |
[01:46.35] |
Filled in all the forms |
[01:47.49] |
And been passed clear of all disease |
[01:49.35] |
Debriefed, debugged |
[01:50.32] |
Dedrugged, disarmed |
[01:50.95] |
And disinfected, please |
[01:52.62] |
Don't forget the guys |
[01:53.71] |
Who cut your keys |
