  OhioChessFan: No doubt another parochial pun selection.

  An Englishman: Good Evening: Baffling pun for an impressive game; have never seen this two-pawn sacrifice in the Berlin before.

  beatgiant: This is such an oldie, I wasn't actually expecting it to get selected. Those who know the song can visualize me slapping the chess pieces on my lap in rhythm with the music. Oi!

Against Lampert you'd never win,
the middlegame's queenless, the opening's no Berlin.

He hasn't got the Carlsen touch,
but that don't matter very much.

He plays a different style.
Not like Ding, a bit more wild.
And when he has a bit of fun, oh boy!

(to the tune of the Lambeth Walk)
Any time when Lampert plays
any endgame any days,
You'll find his king
Doing the Lampert walk.

When he's got an extra pawn
and it's not by opposite bishops drawn,
You'll find his king
Doing the Lampert walk.

Everything free and easy,
pawns on b and c, see.
Why don't you make your way there,
get your king in play there.

Once the plan is clear to you
To prepare the pawn breakthrough,
You'll find your king
Doing the Lampert walk.

That musical has now been drastically renamed for the 2020s.

  beatgiant: Thank you, thank you. This calls for an encore.

(to the tune of Hooray for Hollywood)
Hooray for chessgames puns,
those geeky, kinda freaky chessgames puns,
where any GM middling can get top billing
with just a punnable name.
And if the pun's based on pre-boomer taste
chances are beatgiant's the one to blame.

Hooray for chessgames puns,
where punsters notice GM James Tarjan,
and then decide that he's the perfect named man to pun with Tarzan and get convinced that they should.
They think their pun is swell - aa-AA-aa-AA-ah!
but kibitzers yell it smells - aa-AA-aa-AA-ah!
hooray for chessgames puns.
They've really got me,
Hooray, hooray,
Hooray for chessgames puns.
