[ti:Mad Dogs And Englishmen] [ar:Danny Kaye] [al:Ballin' The Jack] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Mad Dogs And Englishmen - Danny Kaye [00:09.20]In Tropical climes there are certain times of day [00:11.20] [00:12.64]When all the citizens retire to take their clothes off and perspire [00:15.64] [00:16.89]It's one of those rules the greatest fools obey [00:18.96]Because the Sun is far too sultry and one must avoid its ultry-violet [00:23.27]Rays [00:23.56] [00:33.61]The natives grieve when the White Men leave their huts [00:36.36]Because they're obviously definitely nuts [00:38.86] [00:40.93]Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun [00:44.24] [00:44.86]The Japanese don't care to the Chinese wouldn't dare to [00:48.55]Hindus and Argentines sleep firmly from twelve till one [00:52.49]But Englishmen detest a siesta [00:53.99] [00:54.55]In the Philippines they have lovely screens to protect you from the [00:58.11]Glare [00:58.93] [01:00.30]In the Malay States there are hats like plates which the Britishers [01:02.93]Won't wear [01:04.37]At twelve noon the natives swoon and no further work is done [01:07.43] [01:07.99]But mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun [01:12.42] [01:26.11]It's such a surprise for the Eastern eyes to see [01:28.73] [01:29.42]That though the English are effete they're quite impervious to heat [01:33.11] [01:33.73]When the White Man rides every native hides in glee [01:37.17]Because the simple creatures hope he will impale his solar topi on a [01:40.67]Tree [01:41.62] [01:49.68]It seems such a shame when the English claim the Earth [01:52.87]That they give rise to such hilarity and mirth [01:56.56] [01:57.68]Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha [01:58.06]Ho ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho [01:58.50]He-he-he-he-he-he-he [01:58.93]Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm [01:59.56]Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun [02:02.18]The toughest Burmese bandit can never understand it [02:04.19]In Rangoon the heat of noon is just what the natives shun [02:06.69]They put their Scotch or Rye down and lie down [02:09.31]In a jungle town where the Sun beats down to the rage of man and beast [02:13.56]The English garb of the English Sahib merely gets a bit more creased [02:17.25]In Bangkok at twelve o'clock they foam at the mouth and run [02:21.12]But mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun [02:25.12]Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun
