One Night In Bangkok

[00:30.26] One night in Bangkok makes the hard man humble

[00:34.77] Not much between despair and ecstasy

[00:39.22] One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble

[00:43.47] Can't be too careful with your company

[00:47.57] I can feel the devil walking next to me

[00:53.36] Bangkok, Oriental Setting

[00:55.14] But the city don't know what the city is getting

[00:57.48] The crème de la crème of the chess world

[00:59.60] In a show with everything but Yul Brynner

[01:02.23] --

[01:07.04] Time flies – doesn't seem a minute

[01:08.31] Since the Tyrolean spa had the chess boards in it

[01:11.22] All changed, don't you know that when you

[01:12.84] Play at this level there's no ordinary venue

[01:16.26] It's Iceland, or the Philippines, or Hastings

[01:19.45] Or, or this place

[01:22.31] One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster

[01:26.46] The bars are temples but their pearls ain't free

[01:31.08] You'll find a god in every golden cloister

[01:35.53] And if you're lucky, then the god's a she

[01:39.59] I can feel an angel slidin' up to me

[01:43.17] One town's very like another

[01:44.95] When your head's down over your pieces, brother

[01:46.99] It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity

[01:49.32] To be looking at the board not looking at the city

[01:51.89] Whattaya mean?!

[01:53.69] You've seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town

[01:56.34] Tea girls, warm and sweet (sweet)

[01:58.39] Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite

[02:00.67] Get Thai'd, you're talking to a tourist

[02:02.53] Whose every move's among the purest

[02:05.92] I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine

[02:09.41] --

[02:11.87] One night in Bangkok makes the hard man humble

[02:16.42] Not much between despair and ecstasy

[02:20.62] One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble

[02:25.05] Can't be too careful with your company

[02:29.28] I can feel the devil walking next to me

[02:33.76] --

[02:52.82] Siam's gonna be the witness

[02:54.42] To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness

[02:57.25] This grips me more than would a muddy old river

[02:59.87] Or reclining Buddha

[03:01.69] But thank God I'm only watching the game

[03:03.78] Controlling it

[03:06.11] I don't see you guys rating

[03:07.67] The kind of mate I'm contemplating

[03:10.28] I'd let you watch, I would invite you

[03:12.06] But the queens we use would not excite you

[03:15.27] So, you better go back to your bars

[03:17.38] Your temples, your massage parlors

[03:21.52] One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster

[03:25.89] The bars are temples but their pearls ain't free

[03:30.35] You'll find a god in every golden cloister

[03:34.75] A little flesh, a little history

[03:38.91] I can feel an angel slidin' up to me

[03:42.33] One night in Bangkok makes the hard man humble

[03:46.83] Not much between despair and ecstasy

[03:51.18] One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble

[03:55.65] Can't be too careful with your company

[03:59.84] I can feel the devil walking next to me
