One Night In Bangkok

In the style of

Murray Head

Lyrics

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

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
tyrolean 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 their
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
slidin' up to me

one town's
very like another
when your
head's down
over your
pieces brother

what do ya mean
you've seen one
crowded polluted
stinkin' town

get thai'd
you're talkin'
to a tourist
whose every move's
among the purist
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
going to be
the witness
to the ultimate test
of cerebral fitness

this grips me
more than would a
muddy old river
or reclining buddha
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 their
pearls ain't free

you'll find a god in
every
golden cloister
a little flesh
a little history
i can feel an angel
slidin' 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
walkin' next to me
