Mr G is also a pseudonym for Colin McBean, one half of The Advent with Cisco Ferreira. The pair released one album and several EPs between 1997 and 2000 as G Flame & Mr G. In contrast to the uncompromising techno of The Advent, G Flame & Mr G's music was housier - although it's still not for the faint-hearted and is squarely aimed at the dancefloor. Mr G has continued to release solo material in the same mould since 2000, including an album called Me, Myself & I and numerous EPs.

Which is a terrible thing to say about someone who's just died
But apparently there's no denying she was one
Ecstasy, ecstasy e-e-e-e-ecstasy
She's a naughty girl with a bad habit
Bad habit for drugs
Bad habit for drugs
Ecstasy, ecstasy e-e-e-e-ecstasy
Ecstasy, ecstasy e-e-e-e-ecstasy
My name is Jessica
Some kids call me a slut
And I've a dirty habit for ecstasy-e-e-e-e-e
Gimme it

No Jessica, don't get involved in drugs

The song "Naughty Girl" by Mr G is a commentary on the judgement and stigma surrounding drug use and promiscuity in society. The lyrics tell the story of a young woman named Jessica who is referred to as a slut and has a bad habit for taking drugs, specifically ecstasy. The opening lyrics acknowledge that calling someone a slut, especially after they have passed away, is a terrible thing to do. However, the song goes on to highlight how society can still be quick to judge others based on their actions.
The chorus repeats the phrase "She's a naughty girl with a bad habit, bad habit for drugs" multiple times, emphasizing the shame and disapproval that comes with being known for drug use and promiscuity. The use of the word "naughty" further reinforces this negative perception, portraying the girl as someone who has acted against societal norms and expectations.
The lyrics "She can't help taking the drugs on a Saturday night, she can't help being a slut on a Saturday night" suggest that Jessica feels trapped in her behavior, unable to break free from her habits. The final line, which repeats "She was what the kids would call a slut," leaves a lingering sense of judgement and condemnation.
Overall, "Naughty Girl" shines a light on the harsh reality of societal stigma and suggests that we should strive for more empathy and understanding when it comes to individuals struggling with addiction and sexuality.
