[MOLOKOV]
We wish, no must, make our disgust
With this abuse perfectly clear
We're here for chess—
Are the U.S.?
If so, why foul the atmosphere?
[FLORENCE]
I must protest
Our delegation
Has a host of valid points to raise
[ARBITER]
It's not just black and white
If I may coin a phrase
As any neutral would attest
[FLORENCE]
But we concede
The fact his masters bend the rules is not your player's fault
We'll overlook your crude political assault
And under protest we'll proceed
[MOLOKOV]
If your man's so sweet
Then why his fighting talk?
If he's not a cheat
Then why on earth did he go take a walk?
