The Lyrics of Noel Coward Mad dogs and Englishmen Go out in the midday sun, The Japanese don't care to. The Chinese wouldn't dare to, Hindoos and Argentines sleep firmly from twelve to one. But Englishmen detest a siesta. In the Philippines There are 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 and Englishmen Go out in the midday sun. I went to a marvelous party, I must say the fun was intense, We all had to do What the people we knew Would be doing a hundred years hence. Dear Cecil arrived wearing armour, Some shells and a black feather boa, Poor Millicent wore a surrealist comb Made of bits of mosaic from St. Peter's in Rome, But the weight was so great that she had to go home, I couldn't have liked it more.
