about
We live in interesting times. While some struggle to pay heating bills and keep clothes on their back, others are experiencing emotional melt-downs at the cost of private school fees under the pressure of low-performing stocks. The gap between the haves and the have-nots is massive.
Much of our lyric writing is observational and mostly with tongue firmly in cheek. We channel a couple that have challenges keeping up with the Jones. Times are tough, something's got to give...but not the annual holiday, Lord no. Darling, it's the Côte d'Azur (aka The French Riviera) just put it on the card.
lyrics
Feeling the pinch, got a new Maseratti
School fees, gym subs, dinner party
Whitening appointment, personal styling
Herbal ointment, keep smiling
Tightening the belt, got a lunch at Hestons
Nanny had to go, don't mention
Stocks are stalling, banks keep calling
Put it on the card, so boring
Let's get away - summer sun, Dom Perignon, stiff upper lip it's been too long
Time to play - ride the debt and buy some more, have some fun in the Cote d'azur
Times are tough, need a tuck and a face lift
Missed a golf trip, hard shit
Marble top fail, cancelled the kitchen
Life's getting grimy, it's bitchin'
Keepin up Jones, Safron & Hugos
Pawning the silver, God knows
Eating al fresco, take out from Tesco
Savin' the coupons, let's go
Let's get away - summer sun, Dom Perignon, stiff upper lip it's been too long
Time to play - ride the debt and buy some more, have some fun in the Cote d'azur
Squeeze is stifflin', future's frighten'
Time to face it, can't ignore it
We're drowning with the poor
Let's get away - summer sun, Dom Perignon
Time to play, escape it all in the Cote d'azur
Reality cuts a jagged edge
We lick our wounds and put it on red
Let's get away - summer sun, Dom Perignon, stiff upper lip it's been too long
Time to play - ride the debt and buy some more, have some fun in the Cote d'azur

Jel Legg - all instruments, vocals, mixing & production.
Julie Legg - lyrics & all vocals
We produce music laden with antipathy for mainstream culture and seasoned with an alternative point of view, wrapped up in
a deceptive layer of respectability. We champion the creative thinker and the under dog yapping in the wind. Everything we write is inspired by first-hand experience through our ADHD lens. If we resonate with you then that's a connection that means everything to us....more
