American - Soviets Lyrics - Cccp

G: Godd evening 

this is Mr. Gorbachev- 

R: Hello 

Gorby 

this is the White House 

Ronald Reagan speaking- 

G: Hello 

my old friend 

how are you today ? 

R: Fine ! It's time for our daily chess-match 

are you ready ? 

G: Yes 

my last move yesterday was the Queen from A6 to B6- 

They both send their weapons into space- 

their people's problems they seem to displace- 

the arms-race is what they can't negotiate- 

why ain't it chess about what they debate ? 

What went wrong on the Gulf of Iran ? 

Why did the Russians invade Afghanistan ? 

Why not save the money for the armaments 

and be chess-partners in the turnament ?
