American Soviets
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?

Reagan and Gorbachev play chess on T.V.-
the senat is giving a party on the sea-
the nuclear war will forever be banned-
it's only their kings which they have to defend
