about

Hur$t1966 offers a kind of television play for the ears in which the recently- widowed protagonist discovers a shocking secret after working out her late- husband’s 1966 World Cup final-inspired password system.

lyrics

Hur$t1966

‘Bobby, now he was the skipper
So his name's always first in the plan
Gordon looks after our money
He was always a safe pair of hands
It's all so easy to remember
When you know how

Nobby, I used for the auctions
I logged into when I could afford
Martin looks after our Jimmy
You remember the goal that he scored?
Please ask the nurse to draw the curtain round ‘cause I think it’s all over...’

Speaking in code
His last moments were spent
Handing over the keys to his life
An absurdity of passwords
He left behind
He left behind

Sitting alone at his laptop
The jigsaw begins to take form
Bobby and Jackie, and Alan
That team won before she was born
Conspicuously absent
Geoff plays no part

Hidden away in a folder
Password protected no more
Three teenage girls and their mother
Smile back at the man she adored
Behind the camera taking photographs
He left behind
He left behind

[INSTRUMENTAL]

Looking ahead to the future
Thinking about him no more
Time to forget all the passwords
And the hat-trick that she never saw
It's all about their Jimmy now
'cause now it's all over
