Night Drive on the e-File

Classical Main 8.Bd3 · sung from White's side

Verse 1

Bishop on g5, rook on c1

My bishop on d3 eyes h7

He takes on c4, I take him back 8...dxc4 9.Bxc4

He wants his trades, I keep the attack

Chorus

Bishop takes c4, bishop to b3 8...dxc4 9.Bxc4 Nd5 10.Bxe7 Qxe7 11.0-0 Nxc3 12.Rxc3 e5 13.Bb3

Pawn takes d4, rook to e1 13...exd4 14.exd4 Nf6 15.Re1

The open e-file, my neon run

His bishop on c8 still waits to be free

Verse 2

His queen to d6, the lights come on 15...Qd6

My bishop on b3 eyes f7

My rook on c3 rides the third rank

My knight hits e5, money in the bank

Trade it all off and it's a draw by dawn

His bishop on c8 still waits to be free
