[bangkok: 0:00 – 1:46]
[instrumental]

[one night in bangkok: 1:47 – 5:02]
[the american (murray head)]
bangkok, oriental setting
and the city don’t know that the city is getting
the creme de la creme 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 boys in it
all change — 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 (anders glenmark)]
one night in bangkok and the world’s your oyster
the bars are temples but the 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 sliding 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]
whaddya mean? ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town…

[company]
tea, girls, warm, 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 a 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

[instrumental break]

[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

and 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 m-ssage parlours…

[company]
one night in bangkok and the world’s your oyster
the bars are temples but the pearls ain’t free
you’ll find a god in every golden cloister
a little flesh, a little history
i can feel an angel sliding 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
can’t be too careful with your company
i can feel the devil walking next to me
