One Night In Bangkok
Murray Head
One Night In Bangkok 歌詞
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
曼谷一夜鐵漢變得謙遜
Not much between despair and ecstasy
絕望與狂喜只在一念之間
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
曼谷一夜硬漢也會落敗
Can't be too careful with your company
我小心翼翼享受你的陪伴
I can feel the Devil walking next to me
魔鬼似乎就在我身旁
Bangkok,Oriental setting
就在曼谷東方酒店
And the city don't know what the city is getting
這座城市並不知
The creme de la creme of the chess world
它將迎來象棋界的精英們
In a show with everything but Yul Brynner
他們的比賽精彩之極就差影帝尤伯連納光臨
Time flies,doesn 't seem a minute
時光轉瞬即逝
Since the Tirolean Spa had the chess boys in it
自從這些選手去到梅拉諾
All change,don't you know that when you
一切改變在悄悄發生
Play at this level,there's no ordinary venue
當你達到高水準比賽場地也會與眾不同
It's Iceland or the Philippines
冰島菲律賓
Or Hastings or,or this place
黑斯廷斯梅拉諾
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
曼谷一夜整個世界都屬於你
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
酒吧坐落在寺廟可珍珠並非是施捨
You'll find a God in every golden cloister
每個金色的寺院裡你都能找到一位神明
And if you're lucky then the God's a she
若你幸運她會是女神明
I can feel an angel sliding up to me
天使似乎正飛向我
One town's very like another
各個小鎮都很相似
When your head's down over your pieces,Brother
兄弟當你低下頭看著棋子
It's a drag,it's a bore,it's really such a pity
乏味吧無聊吧真的非常遺憾
To be looking at the board,not looking at the city
倘若你盯著棋盤而非看著這座城市
Whaddya mean?
你的意思是
Ya seen one crowded,polluted,stinking town
你看到了一個擁擠的被污染的發臭的小鎮
Tea girls,warm and sweet,warm,sweet
送茶水的姑娘們溫暖又甜美
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham Suite
有些比賽設在東方酒店
'Get Thai'd',you're talking to a tourist
到了泰國你和一個遊客對話
Whose every move's among the purest
他的一舉一動純潔無比
I get my kicks above the waistline,sunshine
陽光照到我的腰際我心滿意足
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
曼谷一夜鐵漢變得謙遜
Not much between despair and ecstasy
絕望與狂喜只在一念之間
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
曼谷一夜硬漢也會落敗
Can't be too careful with your company
我小心翼翼享受你的陪伴
I can feel the Devil walking next to me
魔鬼似乎就在我身旁
Siam's gonna be the witness
暹羅即將見證
To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
這場對智力的最終測試
This grips me more than would
它令我更為激動
A muddy old river or Reclining Buddha
泥濘的古河或臥佛寺都不值一提
But thank God,I'm only watching the game,controlling it
謝天謝地我只是看著比賽掌控一切
I don't see you guys rating
未見你們爭先恐後
The kind of mate I'm contemplating
這正是我所期盼的夥伴
I'd let you watch,I would invite you
我會邀請你們觀賽
But the queens we use would not excite you
但你可能對我們的皇后不感興趣
So you better go back to your bars,your temples
那麼最好還是回你的酒吧
Your massage parlors
你的寺廟你的按摩店吧
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
曼谷一夜整個世界都屬於你
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
酒吧坐落在寺廟可珍珠並非是施捨
You'll find a God in every golden cloister
每個金色的寺院裡你都能找到一位神明
A little flesh,a little history
有點兒新鮮有點兒陳舊
I can feel an angel slidin'up to me
天使似乎正飛向我
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
曼谷一夜鐵漢變得謙遜
Not much between despair and ecstasy
絕望與狂喜只在一念之間
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
曼谷一夜硬漢也會落敗
Can't be too careful with your company
我小心翼翼享受你的陪伴
I can feel the Devil walking next to me
魔鬼似乎就在我身旁
