Split Enz Picture
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.

One Mouth Is Fed Lyrics

Split Enz

There must be a lot of pain
For the happiness I feel today
The balance can be cruel sometimes
Can turn you `round the other way
I lifted up my head from sleep
Linger in the scent of a dream
Someone must be crying now
To make me laugh in sympathy

Well I could be wrong, you could be right
As one mouth is fed, another is denied
Why all the tears, we're crying with delight

As we lay in between the sheets
Ships are sinking in the bay
Find yourself a love to keep
And someone else will have to pay
I lifted up my head from sleep
Linger in the scent of a dream
Someone must be crying now
To make me laugh in sympathy

Well I could be wrong, you could be right
As one mouth is fed, another is denied
Why all the tears, we're crying with delight

I could be wrong
I could be right, I could be wrong

Well I could be wrong, you could be right
As one mouth is fed, another is denied
Why all the tears, we're crying with delight
As one mouth is fed, another is denied
I could be wrong, You could be right
I could be right, You could be wrong
As one mouth is fed, another is denied
I could be wrong, You could be right
I could be right, You could be wrong...
