1.
A pawn came whizzing from the sky Onto the chessboard from up high Joined the war with the white Always ready for a fight Struck like a rook when he wanted to Then snatched the sword from the knight Disguised as the humblest of bishops He went both back and forth To the sides, left and right The chessmen on the other side They were watching terrified All the rules they knew were gone and all their pawns were knocked out, one by one Struck like a rook when he wanted to Then snatched the sword from the knight Disguised as the humblest of bishops He turned peace into fright Can you believe it? So many people follow the rules of the mad man Can you believe it? So many people Soon the chessboard was a mess The game just didn't look like chess The queen was stabbed by a fork By an evil pawn from New York Struck like a rook when he wanted to Then snatched the sword from the knight Disguised as the humblest of bishops He turned peace into fright
