Mad Dogs and Englishmen - Danny Kaye/Vic Schoen & His Orchestra[00:00:00]

In Tropical climes there are certain times of day[00:00:09]

When all the citizens retire to take their clothes off and perspire[00:00:12]

It's one of those rules the greatest fools obey[00:00:16]

Because the Sun is far too sultry and one must avoid its ultry-violet[00:00:18]

Rays[00:00:23]

The natives grieve when the White Men leave their huts[00:00:33]

Because they're obviously, definitely, nuts![00:00:36]

Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun[00:00:40]

The Japanese don't care to, the Chinese wouldn't dare to[00:00:44]

Hindus and Argentines sleep firmly from twelve till one[00:00:48]

But Englishmen detest a siesta[00:00:52]

In the Philippines they have lovely screens to protect you from the[00:00:54]

Glare[00:00:58]

In the Malay States there are hats like plates which the Britishers[00:01:00]

Won't wear[00:01:02]

At twelve noon the natives swoon and no further work is done[00:01:04]

But mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun[00:01:07]

It's such a surprise for the Eastern eyes to see[00:01:26]

That though the English are effete, they're quite impervious to heat[00:01:29]

When the White Man rides, every native hides in glee[00:01:33]

Because the simple creatures hope he will impale his solar topi on a[00:01:37]

Tree[00:01:40]

It seems such a shame when the English claim the Earth[00:01:49]

That they give rise to such hilarity and mirth[00:01:52]

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha[00:01:57]

Ho=ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho[00:01:58]

He-he-he-he-he-he-he[00:01:58]

Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm[00:01:58]

Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun[00:01:59]

The toughest Burmese bandit can never understand it[00:02:02]

In Rangoon the heat of noon is just what the natives shun[00:02:04]

They put their Scotch or Rye down and lie down[00:02:06]

In a jungle town where the Sun beats down to the rage of man and beast[00:02:09]

The English garb of the English Sahib merely gets a bit more creased[00:02:13]

In Bangkok at twelve o'clock they foam at the mouth and run[00:02:17]

But mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun[00:02:21]

Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun[00:02:25]
