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.

No Mischief Lyrics
Split Enz
No mischief, no mischief, no mischief
I don't need the aggravation
This ain't no time for foolin'
Let's get down to business
No mischief, no mischief, no mischief
I don't need the aggravation
No foolin', let's get down to business
There's a crowd outside
That's screaming for your blood
They want action now
From a man whose name is mud
They don't want no mischief, no mischief, no mischief
I don't need the aggravation
This ain't no time for foolin'
No horseplay, it's pass
Let's get down to business (all right)
No mischief, no mischief, no mischief
You're a constant irritation
The power goes to your head
So go get your brain read
Or you'll be out of business
Private profiteer
Our loss is your gain
The things that we revere
You're pouring down the drain
It's no game
When you are a leader
People want to swear by you
So swear by the truth
Still I live in hope
That you might disappear
Off the face of the globe
We won't miss you round here
Have no fear
No mischief, no mischief, no mischief
This ain't no time for foolin'
No horseplay, it's pass
Let's get down to business (No mischief, no mischief)
No mischief, no mischief, no mischief
I don't need the aggravation
The power goes to your head
So go get your brain read
Or you'll be out of business
No mischief, no I don't want no mischief
