---------------------................
(Spoken):
Court in session. What do you mean; "Oi, oi, oi"?
Must have court in session. Order.
(Spoken over ):
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 defence?
I was walking down the street, one night,
When I saw her silhouette in a bathroom light.
Her way of life, baby; nothing to hide,
With her frosted glass shattered curtains open wide.
Naked woman, naked man,
Where did you get that nice sun-tan?
You live in a castle built of sand,
Naked woman, naked man.
Naked from your bath, you go naked to your bed.
And I can't stop the hatred running through my head.
(Spoken over ):
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 for-got 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 pre-fer to be un-happy!
Married woman, married man,
Where did you get that family plan?
Mrs. Ewe and Mr. Ram,
Where did you get that lovely lamb?
(Half Time):
Naked woman, naked man,
Where did you get that nice suntan? (Order in my courtroom!)
Naked woman, naked man,
Where did you get that nice suntan? (Hush up!)
(Increase Tempo):
Naked woman, naked man,
Where did you get that nice suntan?
Naked woman, naked man,
Where did you get that nice suntan?
Naked woman, naked man,
Where did you get that nice suntan?
Naked woman, naked man,
Where did you get that nice suntan?
Naked woman, naked man, where did you get that nice sun-tan?
(Take him away!).
