i think people on here are missing the point of the song. its not about how "dangerous" Bangkok is, or how bad it is. its about focus. when one is distracted by all the moral depravity or even just the simple lusts of the flesh, they are more subject to loosing grasp on the purpose of their original intent... which in the song is a chess tournament, something requiring total focus. the singer is proclaiming the struggle of keeping focused in a town of so many distractions of the body and mind.
Great song and great lyrics, but a couple of mispellings e.g pouluted should be polluted and the other is instramental which should be instrumental. Another thing you should correct is the line where you have "tea, girls warm and sweet, some are set up...". This should read as "T-girls warm and sweet..." which is short for Transvestite girls which the song talks about earlier in "if you're lucky then the gods a she". Again love the song and the lyrics are great. Good job.
Killer - The song is part of a musical called "Chess". The lyrics aren't an attack on Thailand, but rather a demonstration of the cocky and elitist attitude of Freddie (the character who sings it).
@killer123584 i dont agree with wat ur sayin man i mean i love thailand i got there every year its so friggen great but what i think there saying all cities have there upsides and downsides and that just had to pick bangcock
@killer123584 Well, actually, from what I've heard, Bangkok is a horrible place. It may be the world's sex capital, but it's incredibly dangerous. Hell, who was that actor they found hanging in a closet by his neck?
@killer123584 hes not hating on Thailand, the songs about him in a chess tournament in Bangkok and he doesn't want anything to do with the sex trade going on there "i get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine"
In some parts it sounds like Taco, from putting on the ritz, not the food taco.

The worldwide chess tourneys are held in different places every year. And yes, it's the Philippines as in the islands.

You've got to upgrade your spelling if you want to do these kinds of things. Otherwise the video is great. The misspellings are negative attractions.
