Chess New York movie - You Want to Lose Your Only Friend? lyrics
rate me<br>
[FLORENCE]<br>
You want to lose your only friend?<br>
Well, keep it up, you're doing fine<br>
Why this humiliation?<br>
Why treat me like a fool?<br>
I've taken shit for seven years<br>
And I won't take it anymore.<br>
<br>
[FREDDIE]<br>
I'm only teasing Soviets<br>
With gentle bonhomie<br>
And you've a better reason to be anti-them than me.<br>
<br>
[FLORENCE]<br>
There's a time and there's a place.<br>
<br>
[FREDDIE]<br>
Well, how about here and now?<br>
Are you for me or for them?<br>
<br>
[FLORENCE]<br>
There's a time and there's a place.<br>
<br>
[FREDDIE]<br>
1956 -- Budapest is rising<br>
1956 -- Budapest is fighting<br>
1956 -- Budapest is falling<br>
I'd have thought you'd support<br>
Any attack on these people<br>
On the people who ran<br>
Mindlessly over your childhood<br>
Don't let them fool you for<br>
Thirty years on they're the same.<br>
<br>
[FLORENCE]<br>
1956 -- Budapest is fighting<br>
1956 -- Budapest is dying<br>
<br>
[FREDDIE]<br>
They see chess as a war<br>
Playing with pawns just like Poland<br>
If you walk out on me<br>
You're really betraying your father<br>
Were he alive now<br>
He'd surely be dying of shame.<br>
<br>
[FLORENCE]<br>
You know that there's nothing I've done<br>
That he'd be ashamed of in my whole life!<br>
Why'd you have to do this to me?<br>
<br>
