One Night In Bangkok Lyrics - New Arrival - A*teens

American: 

Bangkok, Oriental city 

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 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 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 sliding up to me

American: 

One town's very like another 

When your head's down over your pieces, brother 

Chorus: 

(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) 

American: 

Whattaya mean?! 

You've seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town 

Chorus: 

Tea, girls, warm and sweet, sweet 

Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite 

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! 

Chorus: 

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 

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 

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"... 

Chorus: 

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 sliding up to me 

One night in Bangkok makes the 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
