The Specials

The Specials (sometimes called The Special AKA ) are an English 2 Tone ska revival band formed in 1977 in Coventry, England. Their music combines a "danceable ska and rocksteady beat with punk's energy and attitude", and had a "more focused and informed political and social stance" than other ska groups. The band wore mod-style "1960s period rude boy outfits (pork pie hats, tonic and mohair suits, and loafers)." In 1980, the song "Too Much Too Young", the lead track on their The Special AKA Live! EP, reached number one in the UK. In 1981, the unemployment-themed single "Ghost Town" also hit number one in the UK Singles Chart. After seven consecutive UK Top 10 singles between 1979 and 1981, the band broke up. Their 1983 song "Free Nelson Mandela" was a No. 9 U… more »

Court in session (oy, oy, oy!)
What do you mean 'oy oy oy,' me say court in session!
Order
My name is Judge Roughneck
And I will not tolerate any disobedience in my courtroom
Rude boy, you have been brought in front of me
And charged with smashing this woman's window
Before I sentence you
What have you got to say in your defense?

I was walking down the street one night
When I saw her silhouette in her bathroom light
Her way of life may be nothing to hide
With her frosted glass shattered, curtains open wide

Naked woman, naked man
Where did you get that nice suntan?
You live in a castle built of sand
Naked woman, naked man

Naked from your bath, you go naked to your bed (oh, sure?)
But I can't stop the hatred running through my head

Silence in court
Order
Rude boy, you have led me to believe that you was going out with a girl
And she left you and married someone else
So you got drunk, and smashed up your ex-girlfriend's property
I have come to one conclusion
That is to sentence you to five months in prison
Before they take you down to the cells
What have you got to say for yourself?

He wanted to be something but she knows he never will
She's got him where she wanted and forgot to take her pill
And he thinks that she'll be happy when she's hanging out the nappies
If that's a happy marriage I'd prefer to be unhappy

Married woman, married man
Where did you get that family plan?
Mrs. Ewe and Mr. Ram
Where did you get that lovely lamb?

Naked woman, naked man (silence in my courtroom)
Where did you get that nice sun tan? (order in my courtroom)
Naked woman, naked man (I will have order in my coutroom)
Where did you get that nice sun tan? (hush up!)
Naked woman, naked man
Where did you get that nice sun tan? (hush up!)
Naked woman, naked man
Where did you get that nice sun tan? (hush up!)
Naked woman, naked man
Where did you get that nice sun tan? (hush up!)
Naked woman, naked man
Where did you get that nice sun tan? (order!)
Naked woman, naked man
Where did you get that nice sun tan? (order in my courtroom!)
Naked woman, naked man
Where did you get that nice sun tan?
Naked woman, naked man
Where did you get that nice sun tan? (take him away!)
