[00:00:02] Written by：Tim Rice

[00:00:19] I've a duty as the referee

[00:00:23] At the start of the match

[00:00:27] On behalf of all our sponsors

[00:00:28] I must welcome you

[00:00:30] Which I do there's a catch

[00:00:33] I don't care if you're a champion

[00:00:37] No one messes with me

[00:00:40] I am ruthless in upholding

[00:00:42] What I know is right

[00:00:43] Black or white as you'll see

[00:00:46] I'm on the case

[00:00:47] Can't be fooled

[00:00:49] Any objection

[00:00:51] Is overruled

[00:00:53] Yes I'm the arbiter and I know best

[00:00:56] He's impartial don't push him he's unimpressed

[00:00:59] You got your tricks

[00:01:01] Good for you

[00:01:03] But there's no gambit I don't see through

[00:01:07] Oh I'm the arbiter I know the score

[00:01:10] From square one he'll be watching all 64

[00:01:20] If you're thinking of the kind of thing

[00:01:23] That we've seen in the past

[00:01:27] Chanting gurus walkie talkies

[00:01:28] Walkouts hypnotists

[00:01:30] Tempers fists not so fast

[00:01:33] This is not the start of world war three

[00:01:37] No political ploys

[00:01:41] I think both your constitutions are terrific so

[00:01:44] Now you know be good boys

[00:01:46] I'm on the case

[00:01:47] Can't be fooled

[00:01:49] Any objection

[00:01:51] Is overruled

[00:01:53] Yes I'm the arbiter and I know best

[00:01:57] He's impartial don't push him he's unimpressed

[00:02:00] You got your tricks

[00:02:01] Good for you

[00:02:03] But there's no gambit I don't see through

[00:02:07] Oh I'm the arbiter I know the score

[00:02:10] From square one he'll be watching all 64

[00:02:16] Yes I'm the arbiter I know the score

[00:02:19] From square one he's watching all 64

[00:02:38] No one can deny that these are difficult times

[00:02:50] No one can deny that these are difficult times

[00:02:54] No one can deny that these are difficult times

[00:03:00] It's the US versus USSR

[00:03:04] Yet we more or less are

[00:03:06] No one can deny that these are difficult times

[00:03:11] To our credit putting all that aside

[00:03:14] We have swallowed our pride

[00:03:17] These are dangerous and difficult times

[00:03:21] It really doesn't matter who comes out on top who gets the chop

[00:03:27] No one's way of life is threatened by a flop

[00:03:34] But we're gonna smash their bastard

[00:03:37] Make him wanna change his name

[00:03:40] Take him to the cleaners and devastate him

[00:03:42] Wipe him out humiliate him

[00:03:45] We don't want the whole world saying

[00:03:48] They can't even win a game

[00:03:50] We have never reckoned

[00:03:51] On coming second

[00:03:53] There's no use in losing

[00:03:59] It's the US versus USSR

[00:04:03] Yet we more or less are

[00:04:05] No one can deny that these are difficult times

[00:04:09] To our credit putting all that aside

[00:04:13] We have swallowed our pride

[00:04:15] These are very difficult and dangerous times

[00:04:20] The value of events like this need not be stressed

[00:04:24] When east and west

[00:04:25] Can meet as comrades ease the tension over drinks

[00:04:29] Through sporting links

[00:04:31] As long as their man sinks

[00:04:56] Whether you are pro or anti

[00:04:58] Or could not care less

[00:05:01] We are here to tell you

[00:05:02] We are here to sell you chess

[00:05:05] Not a chance of you escaping from our wiles

[00:05:10] We've locked the doors we've blocked the aisles

[00:05:15] We've a franchise worth exploiting

[00:05:17] And we will yes we will

[00:05:20] When it comes to merchandising

[00:05:22] We could kill

[00:05:25] When you get up

[00:05:26] When you get up in the morning

[00:05:28] Till you crash at night

[00:05:31] You will have to live your life

[00:05:32] With bishop rook and knight

[00:05:35] Clean your teeth with chequered toothpaste

[00:05:37] Wear our vests

[00:05:40] Our kings and queens on bouncing breasts

[00:05:45] You could even buy a set

[00:05:47] And learn to play

[00:05:50] We don't mind we'll sell you something

[00:05:52] Anyway

[00:06:21] We've done all our market research

[00:06:23] And our findings show

[00:06:25] That this game of chess could be around

[00:06:28] A month or so

[00:06:30] Maybe it's a bit confusing

[00:06:32] For a game

[00:06:34] But rubik's cubes were much the same

[00:06:39] In the end the whole world bought one

[00:06:42] All were gone

[00:06:44] By which time we merchandisers

[00:06:46] Had moved on

[00:07:00] By which time we had moved on

[00:07:37] I'm on the case can't be fooled

[00:07:41] Any objection is overruled

[00:07:46] Don't try to tempt me you've no hope

[00:07:50] I don't like women I don't take dope

[00:07:54] I'm the arbiter I know the score

[00:07:59] From square one he'll be watching all 64

[00:08:03] You got your tricks good for you

[00:08:06] But there is no gambit I don't see through

[00:08:11] I'm the arbiter and I know best

[00:08:15] He's impartial don't push him he's unimpressed

[00:08:21] I'm the arbiter my word is law

[00:08:26] From square one he'll be watching you

[00:08:33] Don't you find it rather touching to behold

[00:08:41] The game that came in from the cold

[00:08:50] Seen for what it is religion plus finesse

[00:09:00] Countries classes creeds as one in

[00:09:05] Love of chess
