Recorded 20th September, 1932

In tropical climes there are certain times of day
When all the citizens retire to take their clothes off and perspire

It's one of those rules that the greatest fools obey
Because the sun is far too sultry & one must avoid its ultra violet ray

The natives grieve when the white men leave their huts because they're obviously, definitely nuts

Mad dogs & Englishmen go out in the midday sun
The Japanese don't care to, the Chinese wouldn't dare to
Hindus and Argentines sleep firmly from twelve to one, but Englishmen detest a siesta
In the Philippines they have lovely screens to protect you from the glare
In the Malay states there are hats like plates which the Britishers won't wear
At twelve noon the natives swoon, and no further work is done, but mad dogs & Englishmen go out in the midday sun

It's such a surprise for the eastern eyes to see, that though the English are effete
They're quite impervious to heat when the white man rides every native hides in glee
Because the simple creatures hope he will impale his solar topee on a tree

It seems such a shame when the English claim the Earth
That they give rise to such hilarity and mirth
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo
He, he, he, he, he, he, he, he
Hm, hm, hm, hm, hm, hm

Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun
The toughest Burmese bandit can never understand it
In Rangoon the heat of noon is just what the native shun
They put their Scotch or Rye down and lie down
In a jungle town where the sun beats down to the rage of man and beast
The English garb of the English sahib merely gets a bit more creased
In Bangkok at twelve'o'clock they foam at the mouth and run
But mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun

Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun
The smallest Malay rabbit deplores this foolish habit
In Hong Kong they strike a gong and fire off a noonday gun
To reprimand each inmate who's in late
In the Mangrove swamps where the python romps
There is peace from twelve to two, even caribous
Lie around and snooze, for there's nothing else to do.
In Bengal, to move at all is seldom if ever done.
But mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun!
