Musicals - Chess - What A Scene! What A Joy! Lyrics
Frederick:What a scene,What a joy,What a lovely sightWhen my game isThe big sensation!Has the mob's sporting tasteAltered overnight?Have they foundNew sophistication?Florence:Not yet!They just want to seeIf the nice guyBeats the bum.If it's East-West,And the money's sky high--Florence & Frederick:They all come.Frederick:You can raise all you want,If you raise the roofScream and shout,And the gate increases.Break the rules,Break the bank,I'm the living proofThey don't careHow I move my pieces.Well, I know I'm the best there is,But all they want is a show.Well, that's all right,I'll be glad to oblige--Florence & Frederick:SROSRO!
