Opening Ceremony (《Chess》音乐剧歌曲) - Björn Skifs[00:00:01]

Written by：Tim Rice[00:00:02]

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

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

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

I must welcome you[00:00:28]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Any objection[00:00:49]

Is overruled[00:00:51]

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

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

You got your tricks[00:00:59]

Good for you[00:01:01]

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

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

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

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

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

Chanting gurus walkie talkies[00:01:27]

Walkouts hypnotists[00:01:28]

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

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

No political ploys[00:01:37]

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

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

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

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

Any objection[00:01:49]

Is overruled[00:01:51]

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

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

You got your tricks[00:02:00]

Good for you[00:02:01]

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

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

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

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

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

No one can deny that these are difficult times[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]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

We have never reckoned[00:03:50]

On coming second[00:03:51]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

When east and west[00:04:24]

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

Through sporting links[00:04:29]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

We could kill[00:05:22]

When you get up[00:05:25]

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

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

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

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

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

Wear our vests[00:05:37]

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

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

And learn to play[00:05:47]

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

Anyway[00:05:52]

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

And our findings show[00:06:23]

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

A month or so[00:06:28]

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

For a game[00:06:32]

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

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

All were gone[00:06:42]

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

Had moved on[00:06:46]

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

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

Any objection is overruled[00:07:41]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Love of chess[00:09:05]
