One Night in Bangkok Lyrics
Bangkok, Oriental setting
The city don’t know
what 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 Tyrolean Spa had
the chess boards in it
All change, don’t you
know that when you
Play at this level, there’s
no ordinary venue?
It’s Iceland, or the Philippines,
or Hastings, 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 do ya mean?
You’ve seen one crowded,
polluted, stinking town
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 Bangkok makes
the 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
walkin’ 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
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 we
use would not excite you
So you’d better go
back to your bars
Your temples, your
massage parlours
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
the 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 walkin’
next to me
