[00:18.16] Bangkok, Oriental setting
[00:19.65] And the city don't know that the city is getting
[00:22.46] The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
[00:24.89] Show with everything but Yul Brynner
[00:26.80]
[00:31.93] Time flies - doesn't seem a minute
[00:33.50] Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it
[00:36.36] All change - don't you know that when you
[00:39.22] Play at this level there's no ordinary venue
[00:41.52] It's Iceland... or the Philippines... or Hastings... or... or this place!
[00:47.49] One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
[00:51.88] The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
[00:56.44] You'll find a god in every golden cloister
[01:00.81] And if you're lucky then the god's a she
[01:05.06] I can feel an angel sliding up to me
[01:09.44]
[01:12.12] One town's very like another
[01:13.91] When your head's down over your pieces, brother
[01:16.29] It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
[01:18.48] To be looking at the board, not looking at the city
[01:21.56] Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town...
[01:25.29] Tea, girls, warm, sweet, sweet
[01:27.47] Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite
[01:30.46] Get Thai'd! You're talking to a tourist
[01:32.30] Whose every move's among the purest
[01:35.26]
[01:39.22] I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine
[01:41.04]
[01:41.45] One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
[01:45.76] Not much between despair and ecstasy
[01:50.19] One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
[01:54.70] Can't be too careful with your company
[01:58.90] I can feel the devil walking next to me
[02:02.55]
[02:03.96] Siam's gonna be the witness
[02:05.99] To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
[02:08.27] This grips me more than would a
[02:10.11] Muddy old river or reclining Buddha
[02:12.43] And thank God I'm only watching the game, controlling it
[02:15.80] I don't see you guys rating
[02:18.12] The kind of mate I'm contemplating
[02:20.86] I'd let you watch, I would invite you
[02:22.20] But the queens we use would not excite you
[02:24.63] So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage parlours
[02:29.67]
[02:31.55] One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
[02:36.30] The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
[02:40.67] You'll find a god in every golden cloister
[02:45.22] A little flesh, a little history
[02:49.34] I can feel an angel sliding up to me
[02:53.19] One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
[02:57.45] Not much between despair and ecstasy
[03:01.99] One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
[03:06.53] Can't be too careful with your company
[03:10.73] I can feel the devil walking next to me
[03:14.91]
