Bangkok!
|
Oriental setting
|
And the city don't know what the city is getting
|
The cr?e de la cr?e of the chess world in a
|
Show with everything but Yul Brynner
|
|
Time flies doesn't seem a minute
|
Since the Tyrolean spa has the chess boys in it
|
All change dom't you know that when you
|
Play at this level there's no ordianry venue
|
|
It's Iceland or the Philippines or Hastings or this place
|
|
One night in Bankok and the worlds's your oyster
|
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
|
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
|
And if you're lucky then the god's a she
|
I can feel an angel sliding up to me
|
|
One town is very like another
|
When you head's down over your pieces brother
|
|
Tea girls warm and sweet (warm sweet)
|
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite
|
Get Thai'd you're talking to a tourist
|
Whose every move's among the purest
|
I get my kicks above the waistline sunshine
|
|
One night in Bankok makes a hard man humble
|
Not much between despair and ecstasy
|
One night in Bankok an the tough guys tumble
|
Can't bee to careful with your comapny
|
I can feel the devil walking next to me
|
|
Siam's gotta be the witness
|
To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
|
This grips me more than would a
|
Muddy old river or reclining Buddha
|
|
And thank god I'm only watching the game
|
Controlling it
|
|
I don't see you guys rating
|
The kind of mate I'm contemplating
|
I'd let you watch I would invite you
|
But the queens wee use would not excite you
|
|
So you'd better go back to your bars
|
your temples
|
your massage parlours
|
|
One night in Bankok and the worlds's your oyster
|
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
|
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
|
A little flesh a little history
|
I can feel an angel sliding up to me
|
|
One night in Bankok makes a hard man humble
|
Not much between despair and ecstasy
|
One night in Bankok an the tough guys tumble
|
Can't bee to careful with your comapny
|
I can feel a devil walking next to me
|
