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 and Englishmen Go out in the midday sun! 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.
