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>
