Madness – Shame and Scandal

Madness – Shame and Scandal Lyrics

Artist: Madness
Song: Shame and Scandal

I said
Oh, misery, shame and scandal in the family
Oh, misery, shame and scandal in the family
Down in Trinidad, there was a family

With much confusion as you will see
A mama and a papa and a boy who was grown
He wanted to marry and have wife of his own
He found a girl, she suited him nice

He went to his father to ask his advice
His father said, “son, I have to say no
The girl is your sister, but your mama don’t know”
Oh, misery, shame and scandal in the family

I said
Oh, misery, shame and scandal in the family
And then the weeks went by and the summer came down
Soon, the best girl on the islands he found

He went to his papa to make it a date
His papa shook his head and to this he did say
“You can’t marry that girl, I have to say no
Cause the girl is your sister, but your mama don’t know”

Oh, misery, shame and scandal in the family
I said
Oh, misery, it’s shame and scandal in the family
Oh, he went to his mama, he covered his head

He told his mom, what his father had said
His mother, she laughed, she said, “go man go
Your daddy ain’t your daddy, but your daddy don’t know”
Oh, misery, it’s shame and scandal in the family

Well
Oh, misery, shame and scandal in the family
I said
Oh, misery, shame and scandal in the family

I said
Oh, misery, it’s shame and scandal in the family
