[ENGINEER] Check it out, hey
Yo! Check it out!
Hey boy, you want to try my girls, try my girls!
[DOORMEN] Girls! I got girls!
Gorgeous girls!
[TOURISTS] Hey, wow!
[DOORMEN] Very nice!
[TOURISTS] Oh look! We gotta see!
[VENDORS] Bags, Gucci bags!
Cultured pearls
[TOURISTS] I'm glad
[VENDORS] Shrimp and rice!
[TOURISTS] My wife's not here with me!
[ENGINEER] What a waste
To pay for my keep
I'm rounding up sheep
To fleece here in Bangkok
I'm disgraced
I can't get ahead
There's nothing as dead
As peace here in Bangkok
Ten cents an hour - and I stand all day
I could sell Kim for ten times my pay
If you're looking for fun
Original sin?
If you want to put out
Then you gotta come in
[DOORMAN] Girls! I got girls!
Gorgeous girls!
Very nice!
Girls!
[ENGINEER] Gee, isn't Bangkok really neat?
[DOORMAN] I got girls!
[ENGINEER] The things they're selling on the street
[DOORMAN] Girls!
[ENGINEER] Fresh dog, if that's what you'd enjoy
[DOORMAN] Worth the price!
[ENGINEER] A girl, or if you want, a boy
[DOORMAN and ENGINEER] Hey, come to me
First drink is free
[ENGINEER] Don't be a lump, you can hump
For a small extra fee
I'm depressed
For hustling amours
To Japanese tours
Is no treat in Bangkok
I'm the best
But where's a marine
With fistfuls of green
I'd cheat him in Bankok?
Ten cents an hour...
Evening, Boss
...Screw the Siamese
Look how they're ripping off... refugees
If you're looking for fun
Original sin
If you want to put out
Then you gotta come in
[DOORMEN] Girls!
[ENGINEER] Hey boys, don't stand around like wimps
[DOORMEN] I got girls!
[ENGINEER] Watch out, those guys - they're really pimps
[DOORMEN] Girls!
[ENGINEER] You want some thrills, I'll guarantee some
[DOORMEN] Half the price!
[ENGINEER] Tonight, a twosome or a threesome
[DOORMEN] Hey, come to me!
Look what you'll see!
[ENGINEER] Hey, that's a joke, mine blow smoke
For a small extra fee
[VENDORS] Acid, marijuana and hash
[DOORMEN] We'll get you high in a flash
[TOURISTS] Lets go and see what they mean
[VENDORS] Chicken, lemon grass and bamboo
[TOURISTS] We want to try something new!
[DOORMEN] Come do the ping pong routine!
[ENGINEER] Hey, Joe, try taking a little excursion
You'll all feel good from a little perversion
Massage requiring total immersion
Some strange positions they say are Persian
Drinks are on me
First girl is free
What can I say? You get me
For a small extra fee!
[VENDORS] Acid, marijuana and hash
[DOORMEN] We'll get you high in a flash
[TOURISTS] Lets go and see what they mean
[VENDORS] Chicken, lemon grass and bamboo
[TOURISTS] We want to try something new!
[DOORMEN] Come do the ping pong routine!
