Quartet (A Model of Decorum and Tranquility) Elaine Paige, Tommy Körberg, Denis Quilley & Björn Skifs
[MOLOKOV]
We wish, no, must
Make our disgust
At this abuse perfectly clear
We're here for chess
Are the U.S.?
If so, why foul the atmosphere?
[FLORENCE & MOLOKOV]
I must protest (We wish)
Our delegation (No, must)
Has a host of valid points to raise (Make our disgust)
Our player's sporting attitude's (At this)
Beyond all praise (Abuse)
As any neutral would attest (Perfectly clear)
But we concede (We're here)
The fact his masters bend the rules (For chess)
Is not a player's fault (Are the U.S.?)
We'll overlook their crude (How can)
Political assault (You make)
And under protest will proceed (Such a claim?)
[MOLOKOV & THE ARBITER]
If your man's so sweet (Point seventeen)
Then why his fighting talk? (No one-way screen)
If he's not a cheat (Will be)
Then why on earth (Allowed)
Did he go take a walk? (In the hall)
We wish, no, must
Make our disgust
At this abuse perfectly clear
We're here for chess
Are the U.S.?
If so, why foul the atmosphere?
