How to Beat a Monkey at Chess

This piece takes that piece, but that piece then takes mine
I can't lose my rook while I'm lagging way behind
I'll play safe and wait for an opportunity
I won't let that cheeky monkey make a monkey out of me

Wait, Mark, don't take it, that monkey's set a trap
He wants me to take it? He thinks you're quite a sap
But check out, this bishop, you'll take his piece for free
And the monkey's got no chance to make a monkey out of me

Let's set a gambit, we'll take him by surprise
Not really an option, he took, like, half my guys
Let's bring in the big guns and force his king to flee
So, that monkey doesn't further make a monkey out of me

One of these pieces has got to do the trick
But how can we beat him? I'd recommend a stick
It's crazy, bananas, insane, completely nuts
But I think we made a monkey out of
Completely made a monkey out of
We finally didn't let a monkey make a monkey out of us
