florence:
I would have thought in the average affair
That the first hint of trouble would be
Oh so small; barely perceptible, easy to miss
Why is ours on TV?

the russian:
Listen -- you know as I do
Nothing's altered at all
I have no intention --

florence:
Your personal life's
The lead on the news!
How do we ignore that?

the russian:
I do and I must because otherwise I say
Goodbye to my hopes of retaining my title
If I should succumb to emotional blackmail I'm
done --

florence:
Looking after number one!

the russian:
What do you mean?

florence:
I mean it's always I this and I that
What happened to us?

the russian:
All that I'm saying is I must make certain
That nothing distracts me from chess
When I've won
Then I'll attend to the secondary things --

florence:
Things like me I suppose!

the russian:
No, no -- you're reacting
Exactly the way that they want

florence:
It's the way I have to
If I feel concerned I can't put it off
And come back to it later

the russian:
Well if you're determined to jump when they tell
you
Then maybe it's best that you do it alone
