Êîìïîçèöèÿ: One Night In Bangkok

Bangkok, Oriental city 
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, doesnt seem a minute 
Since the tiralinan 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 
Like 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? Ya seen one crowded, 
polluted, stinking town. 

Tea, girls, warm and sweet 
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite 

Get Thai‘d! 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 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. 
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... 

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
