I Wonder What Happened To Him - Noel Coward and Orchestra[00:00:02]

The india that one read about[00:00:08]

And may have been misled about[00:00:10]

In one respect has kept itself intact[00:00:11]

Though pukka sahib' traditions may have cracked[00:00:15]

And thinned[00:00:18]

The good old indian army's still a fact[00:00:19]

That famous monumental man[00:00:22]

The officer and gentleman[00:00:24]

Still lives and breathes and functions from bombay to katmandu[00:00:26]

At any moment one can glimpse[00:00:29]

Matured or embryonic blimps'[00:00:32]

Vivaciously speculating as to what became of who[00:00:34]

Though eastern sounds may fascinate your ear[00:00:38]

When west meets west you're always sure to hear[00:00:42]

Whatever became of old bagot[00:00:48]

I haven't seen him for a year[00:00:50]

Is it true that young forbes had to marry that faggot[00:00:53]

He met in the vale of kashmir[00:00:55]

Have you had any news[00:00:58]

Or that chap in the blues[00:00:59]

Was it prosser or pyecroft or pym[00:01:00]

He was stationed in simla or was it bengal[00:01:03]

I know he got blind at a ball in nepal[00:01:07]

And wrote several four-letter words on the wall[00:01:11]

I wonder what happened to him[00:01:13]

Whatever became of old shelley[00:01:18]

Is it true that young briggs was cashiered[00:01:20]

For riding quite nude on a push-bike through delhi[00:01:23]

The day the new viceroy appeared[00:01:26]

Have you had any word[00:01:29]

Of that bloke in the third[00:01:29]

Was it southerby sedgwick or sim[00:01:31]

They had him thrown out of the club in bombay[00:01:35]

For apart from his mess bill exceeding his pay[00:01:38]

He took to pig-sticking in quite the wrong way[00:01:42]

I wonder what happened to him[00:01:44]

One must admit that by and large[00:01:49]

Upholders of the british raj*[00:01:51]

Don't shine in conversation as a breed[00:01:53]

Though indian army officers can read[00:01:57]

A bit[00:01:59]

Their verbal wit-has rather run to seed[00:02:00]

Their splendid insularity[00:02:04]

And roguish jocularity[00:02:06]

Was echoing through India when victoria was queen[00:02:08]

In restaurants and dining-cars[00:02:11]

In messes clubs and hotel bars[00:02:14]

They try to maintain tradition in the way it's always been[00:02:17]

Though worlds may change and nations disappear[00:02:21]

Above the shrieking chaos you will hear[00:02:27]

Whatever became of old tucker[00:02:33]

Have you heard any word of young mills[00:02:36]

Who ruptured himself at the end of a chukka[00:02:39]

And had to be sent to the hills[00:02:40]

They say that young lees[00:02:43]

Had a go of d t's'[00:02:45]

And his hopes of promotion are slim[00:02:47]

According to stubbs who's a bit of a louse[00:02:50]

The silly young blighter went out on a souse[00:02:53]

And took two old tarts into government house[00:02:56]

I wonder what happened to him[00:02:59]

Whatever became of old archie[00:03:04]

I hear he departed this life[00:03:06]

After rounding up ten sacred cows in karachi[00:03:09]

To welcome the governor's wife[00:03:12]

D'you remember munroe[00:03:15]

In the p a v o[00:03:17]

He was tallish and mentally dim[00:03:18]

The talk of heredity can't be quite true[00:03:21]

He was dropped on his head by his ayah at two[00:03:24]

I presume that by now he'll have reached g h q[00:03:28]

I'm sure that's what happened to him[00:03:32]
