He's so easy going and accommodating
Striving for harmony, he's sitting there waiting
When all the while
He dreams of paradise
A place where he can be free
No more Mr. Nice
Dancing to the beat of his drums
Wiggle wiggle under his thumb
She's a doormat she cleans his shoes
pick this wallflower if you choose 
When all the while 
She dreams of paradise
a place where she can be free
Without paying the price
When all the while
It's all in her mind
This place where she can be free
No more Mrs. Nice
Ooooh red misty rage is overcoming me
Ooooh I'm breaking free from this niceness cage
When all the while
I dream of paradise 
this place where I can be me
No more sacrifice
When all the while
When all the while
No more Mrs. Nice

Operation Julie is a 3-piece alternative rock band with post punk grit and psychedelic rock influences. The pheonix that is Operation Julie rose from the ashes of Jellly on whom, like on everybody else, the lockdown took a huge toll on. With singer and drummer leaving during that time, the remaining members Vee and Mickey Howard had to rethink the format of the band, scaling it down to a 3-piece, with bassist Vee also taking on lead vocals, making the new limitations work to their advantage. The new material that emerged from that transition still bares the melody and hook driven identity of Jellly but with an additional vulnerability in the voice of Vee. 
The Guitar department is left in the capable hands of Mickey Howard, Ex loads of bands, Chelsea, Marty Wilde, Latin Quarter. Blah blah blah. Mickey and Vee are the principle songwriting team and Joining them on the Drums and completing the new 3 piece, previously from Flesh for Lulu is Mr Bish Bishop.
