Musicals - Chess - Florence Quits Lyrics
Frederick: [Spoken]Five games to one. It's all over.[Sung]So you gotWhat you want.What a nasty ambition.Set me up,Pull me down,Then exploit my condition.I should have guessed, woman,That if pressed, woman,You're on nobody's sideBut your own.And you're behavingLike a mere woman,It's so clear, woman,It's your sex!Once they startGetting old,And getting worried,They let fly,Take it outOn the oneWho supports them--That's youI'm talking about.Florence:Who'd ever guess it?Such a squalid little endingWatching you descendingJust as far as you can go.I'm learningThings I didn't want to know.Frederick & Florence:Who'd ever think it?This would be the situation.Frederick:One more observationFrederick & Florence:How'd we ever get this farBefore you showed meWhat you really are?Florence:You'll be lost without meTo abuse like you're used to.Frederick:Go away!Just get out!Be someone else'sParasite!
