Split Enzis one of the most successful and longest running bands ever to emerge from New Zealand. The group was formed in Auckland in 1971 by Tim Finn, Philip Judd, , Robert Gillies, and Noel Crombie, who originally called themselves "Split Ends." They soon changed the spelling to honor their NZ homeland. For much of their career, the band was known for wild costumes and make-up designed by Crombie. For the first phase of their existence, the band played a kind of progressive rock infused with music-hall humor; later they slipped into a quirky new wavestyle that generated hits worldwide. Numerous personnel changes have been a defining factor for the Enz.

Split Enz
No we're going asian(?) in Abu Dhabi
There's men from every nation if(?) Abu Dhabi
Blow your whistle, bang on a gong
The price of oil goes up before long
They'll be getting rich and getting strong
?... together we'll fly concorde
?... all aboard
You want to go first class, you better save at last
Get to the Abu Dhabi
You want a mansion in Beverly Hills
You want a wedding with all the frills
You want daddy to pay, you better tell him today
Get to the Abu Dhabi
There's...cheek in our cheek
Trust your leaders, business men
Pass the lira, the lira and yen
The Abu Dhabi, Dhabi's here again
Fly(?) together we'll fly concorde
?... all aboard
You want to go first class, you better save at last
Get to the Abu Dhabi
You want a mansion in Beverly Hills
You want a wedding with all the frills
You want daddy to pay, you better tell him today
Get to the Abu Dhabi
.?. dum-te-dum(?) .?.
Fly(?) together, we'll fly concorde
?... all aboard
You want to go first class, you better save at last
Get to the Abu Dhabi
You want a mansion in Beverly Hills
You want a wedding with all the frills
You want daddy to pay, you better tell him today
Get to the Abu Dhabi
