| The American | |
| Bangkok, Oriental Setting | |
| But the city don't know what the city is getting | |
| The crème du 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 changed, 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! | |
| Company | |
| One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster | |
| The bars are temples but their 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 slidin' up to me | |
| The American | |
| One town's very like another | |
| When your head's down over your pieces, brother | |
| Company | |
| 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 | |
| The American | |
| Whattaya mean?! | |
| You've seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town | |
| Company | |
| T-girls | |
| 1 | |
| , warm and sweet ( | |
| sweet | |
| ) | |
| Some are set up | |
| In the Somerset Maugham suite | |
| The American | |
| Get Thai'd, you're talking to a tourist | |
| Whose every move's among the purest: | |
| "I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine" | |
| Company | |
| 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 walking next to me | |
| The American | |
| 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 | |
| But 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 | |
| Company | |
| One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster | |
| The bars are temples but their pearls ain't free | |
| You'll find a god in every golden cloister | |
| A little flesh, a little history | |
| I can feel an angel slidin' 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 walking next to me |
