ARBITER
Ive a duty as the referee
At the start of the match
On behalf of all our sponsors
I must welcome you
Which I do — theres a catch
I dont care if youre a champion
No one messes with me
I am ruthless in upholding
What I know is right
Black or white — as youll see
Im on the case
Cant be fooled
Any objection
Is overruled
Yes Im the Arbiter and I know best
Hes impartial, dont push him, hes unimpressed
ARBITER
You got your tricks
Good for you
But theres no gambit I dont see through
Oh Im the Arbiter I know the score
From square one hell be watching all 64
ARBITER
If youre thinking of the kind of thing
That weve 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
Im on the case
Cant be fooled
Any objection
Is overruled
Yes Im the Arbiter and I know best
Hes impartial, dont push him, hes unimpressed
ARBITER
You got your tricks
Good for you
But theres no gambit I dont see through
Oh Im the Arbiter I know the score
From square one hell be watching all 64
ARBITER
Yes Im the Arbiter I know the score
From square one hes watching all 64
