Weekend People Lyrics

And look!

The clouds come down for the weekend

And the rain comes down for the weekend

And the second home owners come down for the weekend

Stretching their backs from the long drive

Stretching their backs from the long week

Unloading London produce from their hybrid cars

Dealing with the dead locks

Smiling at the Aga

How exhausting it must be

To have to have two of everything!

No wonder they need this

No wonder they need their weekend

Aspiration's

Not a crime

Phil n Kirsty

Double time

Smile smile

Hide your scorn

Then when they've gone

Do a shit on their lawn

Then when they've gone

Do a shit on their lawn

And back in town it's one long queue for a turmeric latte

An endless fish for change

A series of lost loyalty cards

What will they cook for Kiera and Jeremy?

Who's vegan?

Who's gluten free?

Iphone pinned betwixt shoulder and ear

On hold to BT for what seems like weeks

There's always something wrong with the wifi

And nothing the woman is saying makes sense

And then it clicks

"No! I mean my other house!"

Aspiration's

Not a crime

Phil n Kirsty

Double time

Smile smile

Hide your scorn

Then when they've gone

Do a shit on their lawn

Then when they've gone

Do a shit on their lawn

And another week runs sobbing from the busy hands of the weekend

And the second home owners are returning from London

With a silicon baking tray

A bag of beans from that roastery in Hackney

And some existential angst they could really do without

Because it's been another bruising week for the left

And our weekend people are liberals at heart

They just don't understand it

The working class are voting the wrong way

What happened to solidarity?

Thank God they have their weekend

But wait!

What's that?

On the lawn?

Aspiration's

Not a crime

Phil n Kirsty

Double time

Smile smile

Hide your scorn

Then when they've gone

Do a shit on their lawn

Then when they've gone

Do a shit on their lawn

Aspiration's

Not a crime

Phil n Kirsty

Double time

Smile smile

Hide your scorn

Then when they've gone

Do a shit on their lawn

Then when they've gone

Do a shit on their lawn

Aspiration's

Not a crime

Phil n Kirsty

Double time

Smile smile

Hide your scorn

Then when they've gone

Do a shit on their lawn

Then when they've gone

Do a shit on their lawn
