"WHEN IN DOUBT, WHIP IT OUT"


Recommended Posts

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 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

 

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, warm, 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

 

But 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 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 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 walking next to me
