Hunting Tigers Out In "Indiah"
Composer(s): Stanley Damerell; Evans; Hargreaves
Performer(s): The Bonzo Dog Band



With big, hungry tigers, table manners have no place
Dear dear dear, no, dear dear dear, no, dear dear, oh dear, no
After they have eaten you, they never say their Grace
Dear dear dear, no, dear dear dear, no, dear dear, oh dear, no

Hunting tigers can be ripping fun
Like three blind mice, see the hunters run

Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah" 
Yah!

You all know how beastly tigers are
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah"

They bite, they scratch
They make an awful fuss
It's no use stroking them and saying "puss puss puss"
Oh, hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah" 
Yah!

They bite, they scratch
They make an awful fuss
It's no use stroking them and saying "puss puss puss"
Oh, hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah" 
Yah!

"I say, J.O., it's jolly frightening out here"
"Nonsense, dear boy, you should be like me!"
"But look at you, you're shaking all over!"
"Shaking, you silly goose, I'm just doing the Watusi, that's all"

Tigers don't go out on rainy nights
They've no need to whet their appetites

Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah" 
Yah!

How many tigers can you find with forks and serviettes?
Dear dear dear, no, dear dear dear, no, dear dear, oh dear, no
Don't care in what part of you they fix their fretwork sets
Dear dear dear, no, dear dear dear, no, dear dear, oh dear, no

Hunting tigers can be ripping fun
Like three blind mice, see the hunters run!
Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah" 
Yah!
Hunting tigers out in "Indiah"
Out in, out in, out in "Indiah" 
Yah!
