ODDZ AND ENZ (1992) SPLIT ENZ (part of "Split Enz Seventies Collection" box set) 1. 129 (MATINEE IDYLL) (Phil Judd, Tim Finn) - Live Ormond Hall Live - Reefer Cabaret, Melbourne December 30th 1975. 3:50 Tim:] A day too soon, but such a tune will bring to jaded hearts a breath of cheer, the end of year approach in fits and starts and weaves a spell which truth to tell is short rather more than long let honesty shine and yours be mine let the woods be filled with song Hiding in the wings forever We'll take the stage, cos it's now or never And the whole thing reeks of cheap striptease The matinee idylls they all fall to their knees It's not all first nights at all There's nothing more dull than a curtain call `get on with it' Playing Romeo, you make your debut Rose red cheeks but your face is all blue It's not all bouquets & white crayons They're going to laugh when you look down I'm going to ask you if you want to be a chorus boy You can mime the tragedy while we all sing along It's not all first nights at all There's nothing more dull than a curtain call `jolly good show' _____________________________________________________________________ 2. ANOTHER GREAT DIVIDE (Phil Judd, Tim Finn & Eddie Rayner) Single, January 1977. 3:36 There's a song I know, I know - too well an there's a place I go, I go to dwell Some forsaken land, where you're not around Desiring, dividing your time Nothing I could do it was pretty risky Fifty-fifty, she'll make good problem for me She's as cold as ice, she deep frozen She's a saint at home, devil abroad Calculated cool, so worldly wise If you take my advice, just hightail out of there Go right ahead before she tells some cock-and-bull story about some school boy She neurotic, psychotic, you name it, she's got it Ooh Another great divide, another great divide (la-la-la...) Now how can I figure this equation, if multiplication's the rule You keep subtracting me from you, and it just doesn't add up at all how can I figure this equation, if multiplication's the rule You keep subtracting me from you, and it just doesn't add up at all Ooh another great divide, another great divide Just another great divide, just another great divide Just another great, just another great, just another great divide [repeat to fade with an extra 'divide' each third line] _____________________________________________________________________ 3.
