[00:52.17]Bangkok, Oriental setting
[00:53.85]And the city don't know that the city is getting
[00:56.22]The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
[00:58.23]Show with everything but Yul Brynner
[01:05.34]Time flies doesn't seem a minute
[01:06.96]Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it
[01:09.75]All change don't you know that when you
[01:11.64]Play at this level there's no ordinary venue
[01:14.7]It's Iceland or the Philippines or Hastings or
[01:19.08]or this place!
[01:20.79]One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
[01:25.29]The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
[01:29.61]You'll find a god in every golden cloister
[01:34.14]And if you're lucky then the god's a she
[01:38.16]I can feel an angel sliding up to me
[01:41.729996]One town's very like another
[01:43.41]When your head's down over your pieces, brother
[01:45.66]It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
[01:47.79]To be looking at the board, not looking at the city
[01:50.31]Whaddya mean?Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town
[01:54.78]Tea, girls, warm, sweet
[01:56.79]Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite
[01:59.31]Get Thai'd!You're talking to a tourist
[02:01.17]Whose every move's among the purest
[02:04.32]I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine
[02:10.35]One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
[02:15.0]Not much between despair and ecstasy
[02:19.17]One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
[02:23.58]Can't be too careful with your company
[02:27.75]I can feel the devil walking next to me
[02:30.42]Siam's gonna be the witness
[02:31.26]To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
[02:32.4]This grips me more than would a
[02:33.06]Muddy old river or reclining Buddha
[02:37.08]And thank God I'm only watching the game controlling it
[02:38.25]I don't see you guys rating
[02:38.82]The kind of mate I'm contemplating
[02:39.63]I'd let you watch, I would invite you
[02:43.83]But the queens we use would not excite you
[02:44.73]So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage
[02:46.38]parlours
[03:06.54]One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
[03:11.04]The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
[03:15.36]You'll find a god in every golden cloister
[03:20.52]A little flesh, a little history
[03:23.91]I can feel an angel sliding up to me
[03:27.45]One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
[03:31.95]Not much between despair and ecstasy
[03:36.27]One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
[03:40.68]Can't be too careful with your company
[03:44.85]I can feel the devil walking next to me
