Chess by Rivers Cuomo
Chess lyrics
Chess is such a difficult game
There's so many pieces
So many squares where you can go
So few promises
Never you mind all the others
Anticipating your next move
I know it's hard
'Cause you got a lot to do
Street signs and traffic lights
Ever confusing me, too
Stop left, go right, no U-turn
Where's the God damn exit?
Never you mind all the others
Influencing your next move
I know it's hard
'Cause you've got a lot to prove
La la la, la la la
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Pieces lie right before you
This puzzle can't be done wrong
So come along while you can
Never you mind all the others
Anticipating your next move
Never you mind all the others
Never you mind what they do
Don't let them get you down
'Cause if they do
You'll be trapped forever under their shoe
Here is a paintbrush of gold
I know it's hard
'Cause you've got a lot to do
La la la, la la la
