One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble Not much between despair and ecstasy One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble Cant be too careful with your company I can feel the Devil walking next to me Bangkok, Oriental setting And the city dont know what the city is getting The creme de la creme of the chess world In a show with everything but Yul Brynner Time flies, doesnt seem a minute Since the Tirolean Spa had the chess boys in it All change, dont you know that when you Play at this level, theres no ordinary venue Its Iceland or the Philippines Or Hastings or, or this place One night in Bangkok and the worlds your oyster The bars are temples but the pearls aint free Youll find a God in every golden cloister And if youre lucky then the Gods a she I can feel an angel sliding up to me One towns very like another When your heads down over your pieces, Brother Its a drag, its a bore, its really such a pity To be looking at the board, not looking at the city Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town Tea girls, warm and sweet, warm, sweet Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham Suite Get Thaid, youre talking to a tourist Whose every moves among the purest I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble Not much between despair and ecstasy One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble Cant be too careful with your company I can feel the Devil walking next to me Siams 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, Im only watching the game, controlling it I dont see you guys rating The kind of mate Im contemplating Id 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 One night in Bangkok and the worlds your oyster The bars are temples but the pearls aint free Youll 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 a hard man humble Not much between despair and ecstasy One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble Cant be too careful with your company I can feel the Devil walking next to me SONGWRITERS
