lyrics

On a fancy development
On the edge of the greenbelt
Understated topiary
Zero graffiti
This is the place Julia went peculiar
Started reading books by obscure nihilists
Doing research into occult practices

Changed the name of her children to Okra and Aubergine
Her partner left her for someone less challenging...

Julia...stares through ya
Yeah Julia, through ya, through ya

She went on the dark web
Set up a network
Collecting followers
All called 'anonymous'

They meet up on Sundays and go into the woods
Bet they don’t discuss topiary
Want someone to invite me...

Julia...stares through ya
Yeah Julia, stares through ya, through ya

Julia...........
