I Wonder What Happened To Him - Noel Coward and Orchestra

[00:0.0]I Wonder What Happened To Him (我想知道他发生了什么) - Noel Coward and Orchestra
[00:8.24]The india that one read about
[00:10.0]And may have been misled about
[00:11.72]In one respect has kept itself intact
[00:15.43]Though pukka sahib' traditions may have cracked
[00:18.11]And thinned
[00:19.06]The good old indian army's still a fact
[00:22.59]That famous monumental man
[00:24.48]The officer and gentleman
[00:26.21]Still lives and breathes and functions from bombay to katmandu
[00:29.84]At any moment one can glimpse
[00:32.25]Matured or embryonic blimps'
[00:34.46]Vivaciously speculating as to what became of who
[00:38.47]Though eastern sounds may fascinate your ear
[00:42.86]When west meets west you're always sure to hear
[00:48.72]Whatever became of old bagot
[00:50.97]I haven't seen him for a year
[00:53.44]Is it true that young forbes had to marry that faggot
[00:55.79]He met in the vale of kashmir
[00:58.25]Have you had any news
[00:59.14]Or that chap in the blues
[01:00.18]Was it prosser or pyecroft or pym
[01:06.5]He was stationed in simla or was it bengal
[01:13.03]I know he got blind at a ball in nepal
[01:19.]And wrote several four-letter words on the wall
[01:23.13]I wonder what happened to him
[01:30.55]Whatever became of old shelley
[01:34.8]Is it true that young briggs was cashiered
[01:39.7]For riding quite nude on a push-bike through delhi
[01:43.55]The day the new viceroy appeared
[01:48.82]Have you had any word
[01:49.97]Of that bloke in the third
[01:52.12]Was it southerby sedgwick or sim
[01:59.62]They had him thrown out of the club in bombay
[01:64.52]For apart from his mess bill exceeding his pay
[01:70.02]He took to pig-sticking in quite the wrong way
[01:74.8]I wonder what happened to him
[01:82.98]One must admit that by and large
[01:85.57]Upholders of the british raj*
[01:88.77]Don't shine in conversation as a breed
[01:95.12]Though indian army officers can read
[01:99.77]A bit
[02:01.25]Their verbal wit-has rather run to seed
[02:07.28]Their splendid insularity
[02:10.35]And roguish jocularity
[02:13.42]Was echoing through India when victoria was queen
[02:19.57]In restaurants and dining-cars
[02:24.27]In messes clubs and hotel bars
[02:29.1]They try to maintain tradition in the way it's always been
[02:36.48]Though worlds may change and nations disappear
[02:45.2]Above the shrieking chaos you will hear
[02:55.4]Whatever became of old tucker
[02:60.35]Have you heard any word of young mills
[02:65.12]Who ruptured himself at the end of a chukka
[02:67.92]And had to be sent to the hills
[02:72.27]They say that young lees
[02:75.38]Had a go of d t's'
[02:78.33]And his hopes of promotion are slim
[02:83.33]According to stubbs who's a bit of a louse
[02:88.73]The silly young blighter went out on a souse
[02:94.53]And took two old tarts into government house
[02:99.1]I wonder what happened to him
[03:06.72]Whatever became of old archie
[03:11.47]I hear he departed this life
[03:15.58]After rounding up ten sacred cows in karachi
[03:21.23]To welcome the governor's wife
[03:25.4]D'you remember munroe
[03:28.35]In the p a v o
[03:31.15]He was tallish and mentally dim
[03:36.63]The talk of heredity can't be quite true
[03:41.37]He was dropped on his head by his ayah at two
[03:48.03]I presume that by now he'll have reached g h q
[03:53.98]I'm sure that's what happened to him
