One Night in Bangkok Lyrics

Bangkok oriental setting and the city don't know that the city is getting
the crème de la crème of the chess world
in a show with everything but Yul Brynner
time flies doesn't seem a minute
since the Tirolean spa had the chess boards in it
all change don't you know
when you play at this level there's no ordinary venus
it's Iceland or the Philippines or Hasting or or this place
One night in Bangkok and the world'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's very like another
when your head's down over your pieces brother
(it's a drag it's a bore it's really such a pity)
(to be looking at the board not looking at the city)
what d'ya mean you seen one crowded polluted stinking town
(tea girls warm and sweet 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 Bangkok makes a hard man humble
not much between despair and ecstasy
one night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me

Siam's gonna be the witness to the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
this grips me more than would a muddy old river or reclining Buddha
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 we use would not excite you
so you better go back to your bars your temples your massage parlors
One night in Bangkok and the world'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 Bangkok makes a hard man humble
not much between despair and ecstasy
one night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me
