Frankie goes to Hollywood - One Night In Bangkok слова песни
Music & Lyrics : Benny Anderson - Tim Rice - Bjsrn UlvaeusTHE AMERICAN:Bangkok, Oriental settingAnd the city don`t know that the city is gettingThe creme de la creme of the chess world in aShow with everything but Yul BrynnerTime flies -- doesn`t seem a minuteSince the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in itAll change -- don`t you know that when youPlay at this level there`s no ordinary venueIt`s Iceland -- or the Philippines -- or Hastings -- or --or this place!COMPANY:One night in Bangkok and the world`s your oysterThe bars are temples but the pearls ain`t freeYou`ll find a god in every golden cloisterAnd if you`re lucky then the god`s a sheI can feel an angel sliding up to meTHE AMERICAN:One town`s very like anotherWhen your head`s down over your pieces, brotherCOMPANY:It`s a drag, it`s a bore, it`s really such a pityTo be looking at the board, not looking at the cityTHE AMERICAN:Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town --COMPANY:Tea, girls, warm, sweetSome are set up in the Somerset Maugham suiteTHE AMERICAN:Get Thai`d! You`re talking to a touristWhose every move`s among the purestI get my kicks above the waistline, sunshineCOMPANY:One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humbleNot much between despair and ecstasyOne night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumbleCan`t be too careful with your companyI can feel the devil walking next to meTHE AMERICAN:Siam`s gonna be the witnessTo the ultimate test of cerebral fitnessThis grips me more than would aMuddy old river or reclining BuddhaAnd thank God I`m only watching the game -- controlling it --I don`t see you guys ratingThe kind of mate I`m contemplatingI`d let you watch, I would invite youBut the queens we use would not excite youSo you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massageparlours --COMPANY:One night in Bangkok and the world`s your oysterThe bars are temples but the pearls ain`t freeYou`ll find a god in every golden cloisterA little flesh, a little historyI can feel an angel sliding up to meOne night in Bangkok makes a hard man humbleNot much between despair and ecstasyOne night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumbleCan`t be too careful with your companyI can feel the devil walking next to me
