"Shame and Scandal" von Madness erzählt die Geschichte einer Familie in Trinidad, die mit viel Verwirrung und Skandalen ...

Woh, misery, shame and scandal in the family
Woh, misery, shame and scandal in the family

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 a wife of his own
He found a girl, she suited him nice
Went to his father to ask his advice
His father said son, I have to say no
That girl is your sister but your mama don't know

Woh, misery, shame and scandal in the family
Woh, misery, shame and scandal in the family

Then the weeks went by and the summer came down
Soon the best girl in the island he found
He went to his papa, to make a date
His papa shook his head and to him he did say
You can't marry that girl, I have to say no
Cos the girl is your sister, but your mama don't know

Woh, misery, shame and scandal in the family
Woh, misery, shame and scandal in the family

He went to his mama, he covered his head
He told his mum, what his father had said
His mama she laughed she said, go man go
Your daddy ain't your daddy, but your daddy don't know

Woh, misery, shame and scandal in the family
Woh, misery, shame and scandal in the family
Woh, misery, shame and scandal in the family...
