BEGINNINGI
IFREDDIEJ
Bangkok, Oriental setting

And the city don't know
What the city is getting
The creme de la creme
Move on to another venue.
Like lceland-- or the Philippines

0r Hastings-- or-- or this place!
ICHORUSJ
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.
IFREDDIEJ
Whaddya mean?
Ya seen one crowded,

Polluted, stinking town

Ya seen 'em all.
I get my kicks
Above the waistline, sunshine.
ICOMPANYI
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.

lFREDDIEl
Siam's gonna be the witness

To the ultimate test
Of cerebral fitness
This grips me more
Than would a

Muddy old river
0r reclining Buddha.
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...
ICOMPANYI
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 pressure
Little history
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.
