[00:18.29]Bangkok, Oriental setting
[00:20.04]And the city don't know that the city is getting
[00:22.32]The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
[00:24.64]Show with everything but Yul Brynner
[00:31.77]Time flies -- doesn't seem a minute
[00:33.58]Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it
[00:35.88]All change -- don't you know that when you
[00:38.88]Play at this level there's no ordinary venue
[00:41.38]It's Iceland -- or the Philippines -- or Hastings -- or -- or this place!
[00:46.93]One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
[00:51.67]The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
[00:55.97]You'll find a god in every golden cloister
[01:00.71]And if you're lucky then the god's a she
[01:04.93]I can feel an angel sliding up to me
[01:09.86]One town's very like another
[01:13.90]When your head's down over your pieces, brother
[01:16.11]It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
[01:18.33]To be looking at the board, not looking at the city
[01:20.81]Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town --
[01:25.44]Tea, girls, warm, sweet
[01:27.20]Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite
[01:29.84]Get Thai'd! You're talking to a tourist
[01:31.95]Whose every move's among the purest
[01:38.50]I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine
[01:41.17]One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
[01:45.44]Not much between despair and ecstasy
[01:49.46]One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
[01:54.39]Can't be too careful with your company
[01:58.72]I can feel the devil walking next to me
[02:03.45]Siam's gonna be the witness
[02:05.50]To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
[02:07.92]This grips me more than would a
[02:09.68]Muddy old river or reclining Buddha
[02:12.10]And thank God I'm only watching the game -- controlling it --
[02:15.54]I don't see you guys rating
[02:17.10]The kind of mate I'm contemplating
[02:19.19]I'd let you watch, I would invite you
[02:21.30]But the queens we use would not excite you
[02:24.35]So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage parlours --
[02:30.98]One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
[02:36.03]The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
[02:40.15]You'll find a god in every golden cloister
[02:45.00]A little flesh, a little history
[02:49.11]I can feel an angel sliding up to me
[02:53.16]One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
[02:57.28]Not much between despair and ecstasy
[03:01.43]One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
[03:06.40]Can't be too careful with your company
[03:10.44]I can feel the devil walking next to me
