Bishop Out Before the Wall

Grünfeld 4.Bf4 Bg7 5.e3 · sung from White's side

Verse 1

Pawn to d4, pawn to c4 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4

Knight to c3, he plays d5 2...g6 3.Nc3 d5

His pawn on d5 hits c4

My pawn on d4 stands alive

Chorus

Bishop to f4, he goes g7 4.Bf4 Bg7

Pawn to e3, my wall is set 5.e3

My bishop eyes c7

Out before e3, no regret

Verse 2

He strikes with c5, I take the pawn 5...c5 6.dxc5

Check on a4, the queens are gone 6...Qa5 7.Qa4+ Qxa4

Knight takes back, the quiet comes 8.Nxa4

My extra pawn sits on c5

Leave b2 bare and he comes alive

Chorus

Bishop to f4, he goes g7 4.Bf4 Bg7

Pawn to e3, my wall is set 5.e3

My bishop eyes c7

Out before e3, no regret
