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.

Maybe Lyrics
Split Enz
And if you all had rooms
Would you still have room for me?
Making the way for you and your dear `ol family tree
Like a stormy sky, it's a sad song
It's just a point of view, but a true song
And if you all looked up
Would you still look down on me?
I'm just a country boy, can't you see that I'm still green
Raising finance for the day we meet
Gazing headlong down some empty street
Maybe, she'll come along
Knock me right off me feet
Maybe, please don't be long
I need all the help I can get
Maybe we'll get it on, ooh lala
And when the day breaks
In our stately home we'll sit
Remembering those nights before our hearts were set
Hoping is not enough to live upon
Such a far far cry, I can't go wrong
Maybe, she'll come along
Knock me right off me feet
Maybe, please don't be long
I need all the help I can get
Maybe we'll get it on, oh lala
