Robey - One Night In Bangkok lyrics

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

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

(CHORUS)

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

Waddaya mean

You seen one crowded

Polluted, stinking town

Tea, girls, warm amd sweet

Some are set up in the

Somerset Maugham suite

Get Thai'd

You're talking to a tourist

Whose every move'sRobey - One Night In Bangkok - http://motolyrics.com/robey/one-night-in-bangkok-lyrics.html

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

Walking 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 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 massage parlors

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
