Chess in Concert
Florence Quits (Live)
[FREDDIE, spoken]
Five games to one. It's all over

(sung)
So you got what 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 side
But your own
And you're behaving
Like a mere woman
It's so clear, woman
It's your sex!
Once they start
Getting old
And getting worried
They let fly
Take it out
On the one who supports them--
That's you I'm talking about

[FLORENCE]
Who'd ever guess it?
Such a squalid little ending--
Watching you descending
Just as far as you can go
I'm learning
Things I didn't want to know
[FREDDIE & FLORENCE]
Who'd ever think it?
This would be the situation

[FREDDIE]
One more observation--

[FREDDIE & FLORENCE]
How'd we ever get this far
Before you showed me
What you really are?

[FLORENCE]
You'll be lost without me
To abuse like you're used to

[FREDDIE]
Go away! Just get out!
Be someone else's parasite!
