 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]
 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
 
 [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 massage 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

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
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
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 massage 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
