One Night In Bangkok by Murray Head
Bangkok
Oriental Setting
But 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 (1)________________ spa
Had the chess (2)________ in it
All changed
Don't you (3)________ (4)________ when you
Play at this level
There's no ordinary venue
It's Iceland
Or the Philippines
Or Hastings
Or, or this place
One (5)__________ in Bangkok
And the world's your oyster
The (6)________ are temples
But (7)__________ 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 (8)________ another
When your head's down
Over your pieces, brother
It's a drag
It's a bore
It's (9)____________ such a pity
To be looking at the board
Not looking at the city
What do you mean?!
You've seen one crowded
Polluted, (10)________________ town
Tea girls, warm and sweet
(Sweet)
Some are set up in
The Somerset Maugham suite
Get Thai'ed
You're talking to a tourist
Whose every move's
Among the purest
I get my kicks
Above the waistline
Sunshine!
One night in Bangkok makes
The (11)________ man humble
Not (12)________ 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
Thank God
I'm only watching the game
Controlling it
I don't see
You guys rating
The (13)________ of mate
I'm contemplating
I'd let you watch
I would invite you
But the queens we use
Would not (14)____________ you
So you better go back
To (15)________ bars, your temples
Your (16)______________ parlors
One (17)__________ in Bangkok
And the world's your oyster
The bars are temples
But their (18)____________ 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
The (19)________ man humble
Not (20)________ between
Despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok
And the (21)__________ guys tumble
Can't be too careful
With (22)________ company
I can (23)________ the devil
Walking (24)________ to me
