Mad dogs and Englishmen

There is an old, old, song about how mad dogs and englishmen go out in the noonday sun. I was thinking about it while walking old Cody around the neighborhood earlier. Hey! Here it is on You-Tube! 1932. Not that long ago, in the Grand Scheme of things.

I heard this on Dr. Demento originally, in maybe 1977? I always looked forward to Sunday evenings with the doctor, after one of the dudes smoking wacky tobacky behind the gym clued me in.
