It's been a long time since this song came across my playlist, and since my brain started screaming "SYLENS" while I was listening to it, I'd like to share it in that specific context. :B

(You can hit CC for in-video lyrics, or I've also got them under the cut)

[instrumental intro]

Bangkok - Oriental setting And the city don't know what the city is getting The crème de la crème of the chess world In a show with everything but Yul Brynner Time flies - doesn't seem a minute Since the Tyrolean 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 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 [Chorus, arguing] 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 What do you mean? You've seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town -- [Chorus, interrupting] 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 - [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

[sweet flute solo]

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'd 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 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 sliding 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

watching bridgerton and obviously there were a lot of things wrong with the way socializing has worked in the past, but honestly the idea of a "calling hour" is so appealing. office hours for friendship. you can show up unannounced at my home between 1 and 3pm. you must leave by 3pm. I may give you a pastry. lets bring that back

I have finally finished season 2 of Arcane and can now enjoy your art without fear!!! They should be happy together 🥺

I take it "they" means zaundads because that is what I've been drawing the most BUT, lets be honest, applies to like 98% of the characters in the show.

They should've been a big happy familyyyy

Echidna warriors are inclined to let the youngsters in their tribe win small battles to encourage confidence. They are also inclined to humble those who boast too much confidence lol.
