[ti:Mad Dogs And Englishmen] [ar:Danny Kaye] [al:Ballin' The Jack] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Mad Dogs And Englishmen - Danny Kaye [00:09.19]In Tropical climes there are certain times of day [00:11.19] [00:12.63]When all the citizens retire to take their clothes off and perspire [00:15.63] [00:16.88]It's one of those rules the greatest fools obey [00:18.95]Because the Sun is far too sultry and one must avoid its ultry-violet [00:23.26]Rays [00:23.55] [00:33.60]The natives grieve when the White Men leave their huts [00:36.35]Because they're obviously definitely nuts [00:38.85] [00:40.92]Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun [00:44.23] [00:44.85]The Japanese don't care to the Chinese wouldn't dare to [00:48.54]Hindus and Argentines sleep firmly from twelve till one [00:52.48]But Englishmen detest a siesta [00:53.98] [00:54.54]In the Philippines they have lovely screens to protect you from the [00:58.10]Glare [00:58.92] [01:00.29]In the Malay States there are hats like plates which the Britishers [01:02.92]Won't wear [01:04.36]At twelve noon the natives swoon and no further work is done [01:07.42] [01:07.98]But mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun [01:12.41] [01:26.10]It's such a surprise for the Eastern eyes to see [01:28.72] [01:29.41]That though the English are effete they're quite impervious to heat [01:33.10] [01:33.72]When the White Man rides every native hides in glee [01:37.16]Because the simple creatures hope he will impale his solar topi on a [01:40.66]Tree [01:41.61] [01:49.67]It seems such a shame when the English claim the Earth [01:52.86]That they give rise to such hilarity and mirth [01:56.55] [01:57.67]Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha [01:58.05]Ho ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho [01:58.49]He-he-he-he-he-he-he [01:58.92]Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm [01:59.55]Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun [02:02.17]The toughest Burmese bandit can never understand it [02:04.18]In Rangoon the heat of noon is just what the natives shun [02:06.68]They put their Scotch or Rye down and lie down [02:09.30]In a jungle town where the Sun beats down to the rage of man and beast [02:13.55]The English garb of the English Sahib merely gets a bit more creased [02:17.24]In Bangkok at twelve o'clock they foam at the mouth and run [02:21.11]But mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun [02:25.11]Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun
