Lyrics:
[ARBITER] I've a duty as your referee, at the start of this match On behalf of all our sponsors, I must welcome you Which I do -- there's a catch I don't care if you're both champions; no one messes with me I am ruthless in upholding what I know is right Black or white -- as you'll see I'm on the case, and can't be fooled Any objection is overruled 'Cause I'm the Arbiter and I know best [CHORUS] He's impartial, don't push him, he's unimpressed [ARBITER] You got your tricks; good for you But there's no gambit I don't see through 'Cause I'm the Arbiter; I know the score [CHORUS] From square one he'll be watching all 64 [ARBITER] If you're planning on the kind of thing that we've seen in the past Chanting gurus, walkie-talkies, walkouts, hypnotists, Tempers, fists -- not so fast This is not the start of World War Three; no political ploys I think both your constitutions are terrific so Now you know -- be good boys Don't try to con me; you've no hope I don't need women; I don't take dope 'Cause I'm the Arbiter and I know best [CHORUS] He's impartial, don't push him, he's unimpressed [ARBITER] You got your tricks; good for you But just remember, I've got mine too 'Cause I'm the Arbiter I know the score [CHORUS] From square one he'll be watching all 64 [ARBITER] As you settle down behind your pawns, power passes to me You can play like Fischer, Karpov, Euwe, and Tal combined I won't mind; please feel free They all thought they were "the big fro-mage", but they don't have my clout I control the match; I start it, I can call it off Kasparov found that out I'm on your case, and no one's fool If you don't like it, you're overruled 'Cause I'm the Arbiter and I know best [CHORUS] He's impartial, don't push him, he's unimpressed [ARBITER] You got your tricks; good for you But there's no tactic I ain't seen too 'Cause I'm the Arbiter I know the score [CHORUS] From square one he'll be watching all 64 [ARBITER] Yes, I'm the Arbiter; I know the score [CHORUS] From square one he's watching all 64
