The Soviet Machine

[00:03.62] Molokov: Comrades, why are you looking so worried? We are not
[00:08.14] Dealing with the traitor Sogievsky now. Comrade Viigand
[00:12.60] Is a disciplined, Soviet, chess-playing machine.
[00:19.08] Just in case you feel a trace
[00:21.77] Of doubt or even nervous tension,
[00:24.42] Let me draw the latest score
[00:27.13] To your attention.
[00:31.62] Not the score,
[00:32.51] The witless core of commentators are debating.
[00:37.09] Come, admit,
[00:37.91] Who gives a shit for Elo rating.
[00:44.23] No, I prefer
[00:45.17] And I'm sure you concur,
[00:47.85] To see who is ahead
[00:49.62] Psychologically, for example,
[00:52.32] We have on tap,
[00:54.18] An inscrutable chap
[00:55.99] Whose thoughts never stray
[00:57.70] From the state of the play.
[01:03.13] Viigand!!
[01:05.86] Molokov: Whereas...
[01:07.66] It's so difficult to concentrate if
[01:10.49] You have left your native
[01:13.03] Country for a woman
[01:14.98] Who has plans of her own.
[01:18.58] It's not easy for a chap to excel,
[01:21.26] Feeling guilty as hell,
[01:23.03] Having left his wife
[01:24.83] To face the music alone.
[01:28.54] But, even worse,
[01:29.47] Imagine if his ladies met,
[01:32.15] Well then I'll bet,
[01:34.89] The atmosphere 'round here
[01:36.78] Would be a little strained,
[01:39.43] As she explained.
[01:44.86] How could he do
[01:45.70] What he's done to those two,
[01:47.57] Most wonderful girls.
[01:48.48] Yes, I love you both.
[01:49.31] Most amusing!
[01:50.27] Starting them scratch
[01:51.10] They'll torpedo his match,
[01:52.05] His horsepower dead
[01:53.94] On the board and in bed.
[01:55.75] Bit by bit the pieces fit,
[01:57.57] The Soviet machine advances.
[02:01.17] Not one move that
[02:02.04] Won't improve our nation's chances.
[02:05.67] We predict a stunning victory
[02:08.37] On the board and off it.
[02:10.18] This will show that traitor
[02:11.93] No one rats with profit.
[02:20.94] But we're going
[02:22.78] To smash that bastard.
[02:25.46] Make him wanna change his name.
[02:27.22] Take him to the cleaners
[02:28.18] And devastate him,
[02:29.92] Wipe him out,
[02:30.86] Humiliate him.
[02:32.60] We don't want the
[02:33.57] Whole world saying
[02:34.44] "They can't even win a game."
[02:37.16] We have never
[02:38.06] Reckoned on coming second.
[02:39.82] There's no use in Soloists:
[02:48.09] Losing. We can feel the flame
[02:48.93] Of triumph burning,
[02:49.82] Bit by bit the pieces fit, Our people's pride returning.
[02:52.57] The soviet machine
[02:53.42] Advances.
[02:55.23] Not one move that won't
[02:57.04] Improve our nation's chances.
[03:04.23] Hoi!
[03:08.79] No, I prefer and
[03:10.59] I'm sure you concur,
[03:13.29] To see who is ahead
[03:15.06] Psychologically, for example,
[03:17.76] We have on tap,
[03:19.53] An inscrutable chap
[03:21.34] Whose thoughts never stray
[03:23.14] From the state of the play.
[03:24.92] La la la la, la la lay la lay la
[03:26.77] La la la la la la la la la la la
[03:33.18] Bit by bit the pieces fit,
[03:34.90] The soviet machine advances.
[03:37.64] Not one move that won't
[03:38.50] Improve our nation's chances.
[03:40.37] Hey!
[03:41.26] We predict a stunning victory
[03:43.07] On the board and off it.
[03:44.87] This will show that traitor
[03:46.63] No one rats with profit.
[03:49.30] Ah ah, la la la la!
[04:08.23] From Moscow to
[04:13.60] The Bering Strait,
[04:17.22] Citizens will hail
[04:19.93] Our victory.
[04:24.54] In arctic circles,
[04:27.25] Frozen states
[04:32.61] Will join with
[04:33.56] Warmer climes in reverie.
[04:38.98] And I can say of this affair
[04:44.37] I was there,
[04:47.09] Did my share,
[04:47.97] Played my part.
[04:56.05] And comrades
[04:58.78] All will be aware
[05:05.24] I was there
[05:16.02] From the start
[05:21.43] Mmm mmm...
[05:26.88] Ah ah...
[05:32.27]
