《Mad Dogs And Englishmen》歌词

[00:00:01] Mad Dogs and Englishmen - Noel Coward----(replace by 84005)

[00:00:07] In tropical climes there are certain times of day

[00:00:11] When all the citizens retire

[00:00:12] To tear their clothes off and perspire

[00:00:14] It's one of those rules that the biggest fools obey

[00:00:17] Because the sun is much too sultry and one must avoid

[00:00:20] Its ultry violet ray

[00:00:29] The natives grieve when the white men leave their huts

[00:00:32] Because they're obviously absolutely nuts

[00:00:36] Mad dogs and englishmen go out in the midday sun

[00:00:39] The japanese don't care to the chinese wouldn't dare to

[00:00:43] Hindus and argentines sleep firmly from twelve to one

[00:00:47] But englishmen detest a siesta

[00:00:50] In the philippines there are lovely screens

[00:00:52] To protect you from the glare

[00:00:54] In the malay states there are hats like plates

[00:00:56] Which the britishers won't wear

[00:00:58] At twelve noon the natives swoon and

[00:01:00] No further work is done

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

[00:01:13] It's such a surprise for the eastern eyes to see

[00:01:16] That though the english are effete

[00:01:18] They're quite impervious to heat

[00:01:20] When the white man rides every native hides in glee

[00:01:23] Because the simple creatures hope he will

[00:01:26] Impale his solar topee on a tree

[00:01:35] It seems such a shame the english claim the earth

[00:01:38] That they give rise to such hilarity and mirth

[00:01:40] Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

[00:01:42] Hu hu hu hu hu hu hu hu

[00:01:44] Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey

[00:01:47] Mad dogs and englishmen go out in the midday sun

[00:01:51] The toughest burmese bandit can never understand it

[00:01:55] In rangoon the heat of noon is just what the natives shun

[00:01:59] They put their scotch or rye down and lie down

[00:02:02] In the jungle town where the sun beats down

[00:02:04] To the rage of man or beast

[00:02:06] The english garb of the english

[00:02:08] Sahib merely gets a bit more creased

[00:02:10] In bangkok at twelve o'clock they foam at the mouth and run

[00:02:14] But mad dogs and englishmen go out in the midday sun

[00:02:18] Mad dogs and englishmen go out in the midday sun

[00:02:21] The smallest malay rabbit deplores this foolish habit

[00:02:25] In hong kong they strike a gong and fire off a noonday gun

[00:02:29] To reprimand each inmate who's in late

[00:02:33] In the mangrove swamps where the python romps

[00:02:34] There is peace from twelve till two

[00:02:36] Even caribous lie down and snooze

[00:02:38] For there's nothing else to do

[00:02:40] In bengal to move at all is seldom if ever done

[00:02:44] But mad dogs and englishmen go out in the midday

[00:02:47] Out in the midday

[00:02:48] Out in the midday

[00:02:49] Out in the midday

[00:02:50] Out in the midday

[00:02:51] Out in the midday

[00:02:52] Out in the midday sun
