[00:03.62]One Night In Bangkok

[00:07.69]Bangkok, Oriental setting
[00:13.29]And the city don't know that the city is getting
[00:15.55]The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
[00:17.78]Show with everything but Yul Brynner
[00:24.99]Time flies -- doesn't seem a minute
[00:26.61]Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it
[00:29.23]All change -- don't you know that when you
[00:31.93]Play at this level there's no ordinary venue
[00:33.66]It's Iceland -- or the Philippines -- or Hastings -- or -- or this place!
[00:37.10]One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
[00:43.40]The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
[00:47.54]You'll find a god in every golden cloister
[00:52.41]And if you're lucky then the god's a she
[00:57.59]I can feel an angel sliding up to me
[01:00.12]One town's very like another
[01:02.40]When your head's down over your pieces, brother
[01:05.08]It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
[01:07.89]To the looking be board, not looking at the cityat
[01:09.09]Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town --
[01:12.53]Tea, girls, warm, sweet
[01:16.10]Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite
[01:18.15]Get Thai'd! You're talking to a tourist
[01:20.52]Whose every move's among the purest
[01:22.58]I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine
[01:29.33]One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
[01:34.06]Not much between despair and ecstasy
[01:37.06]One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
[01:41.74]Can't be too careful with your company
[01:47.04]I can feel the devil walking next to me
[01:52.41]Siam's gonna be the witness
[02:11.69]To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
[02:13.31]This grips me more than would a
[02:16.51]Muddy old river or reclining Buddha
[02:19.32]And thank God I'm only watching the game -- controlling it --
[02:23.81]I don't see you guys rating
[02:25.31]The kind of mate I'm contemplating
[02:27.42]I'd let you watch, I would invite you
[02:29.92]But the queens we use would not excite you
[02:32.42]So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage parlours --
[02:37.54]One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
[02:43.37]The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
[02:47.30]You'll find a god in every golden cloister
[02:52.29]A little flesh, a little history
[02:56.60]I can feel an angel sliding up to me
[03:00.03]One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
[03:04.28]Not much between despair and ecstasy
[03:08.77]One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
[03:13.26]Can't be too careful with your company
[03:17.38]I can feel the devil walking next to me
