The latest and greatest ... amazing arrival
No conscience, no shame ... for the game of survival
Thieves and villains ... and fraudulent swindlers
Gathered in tribute ... with masks of respect
A big hand, hurray! Oh come on you trustful
Let the band play a waltz into mischief
The chairman is speaking ... instructs the apprentice
All faces are turned ... to the wizard of sentence
Years of experience ... fall from his tongue
Like teardrops to puddles ... they rippled among
A big hand, hurray! Oh come on you trustful
Let the band play a waltz into mischief
This kid of the cowboys ... of fastest deception
Writes down his kiddings ... to ruptuous reception
Calls on the crowd ... of white-pointed heads
To check on the carpets ... while we're in our beds
(Nelly the elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus)
A big hand, hurray! Oh come on you trustful
Let the band play a waltz into mischief
A big hand, hurray! Oh come on you trustful
Let the band play a waltz into mischief
A big hand, hurray! Oh come on you trustful
Let the band play a waltz into mischief
Madness is a British pop and ska band formed in London in 1976. They were part of the late 70s ska revival in the UK, although their accent concentrated more on fun than their political stable-mates The Specials and The Beat. Their sound, characterized by catchy melodies, ironic lyrics and contagious energy, made them one of the most popular groups of the period. Among Madness's most famous songs are 'Our House', 'Baggy Trousers', 'It Must Be Love' and 'House of Fun'. The album 'One Step Beyond...' (1979) is considered a classic of the ska revival genre.
