Biography

UK indie-pop band, formed in 1990 in Hounslow. After Nigel left to record solo and pursue other interests in 2002, the band carried on with a new singer and additional guitarist. Dodgy "Mk. II" were short-lived and the band split up soon after, with Andy and Matt pursuing other interests and joining other bands and "supergroups". In 2009 the original lineup got back together for a week-long run of gigs at the Barfly in Camden and toured their comeback album in the winter of 2011 and throughout 2012, including a tour of the highlands and islands of Scotland.

LYRICS

I'm staying out for the summer
Playing games in the rain
The hills and the fortune
Got me fooled again
You see I work in a factory (I need the money)
I don't want to be late (though I hate this place)
I got my debts to pay for (Free me from this race)
They're going to have to wait

If I ever see you again
I will tell you why
I was low and insecure
I didn't want to make you cry

Well my good's turned bad
And it's just my luck that
You're not on my side
So what happens now? Where did you go?
With these feelings I hide?

I've had enough lining
Pockets I've never met
They've got me working all hours
I ain't gained nothing yet

If I ever see you again
I will tell you why
I was low and insecure (If I ever see you cry)
I didn't want to make you cry

Well my good's turned bad
And it's just my luck that
You're not on my side
So what happens now? Where did you go?
With these feelings I write?
I'm staying out for the summer
Playing games in the rain
The hills and the fortune
Won't be the same again

I'm staying out for the summer
