Murray Head - One Night in Bankok слова песни
Bangkok - Oriental setting
And the city don`t know
What the city is getting.
The creme de la creme of
The chess world in a show
With everything
But Yul Brynner.
Times 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!
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.
One town`s very like another when your head`s down
Over your pieces
brother.
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.
Whaddya mean? You`ve seen one crowded
polluted
stinking town.
Tea
girls
warm and sweet
warm
sweet
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite.
Get Thai`d! You`re talking to a tourist
Whose every moves`s 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
Can`t be too careful with your company.
I can feel the devil walkin` next to me.
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 Buddah.
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`d better go back to your bars
your temples
your massage parlou
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 . . .
