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.

Parrot Fashion Love Lyrics
Split Enz
-==========================================-
Sitting on the verandah, with my old girl Miranda
5 o'clock shadows soft in the gloom
In love after a fashion, we're broke, spent all our passion
9 o'clock and we're off to our room
`Coming like a habit, `coming like a ritual
The same old tete-`-tete in your dreamy feather-bed
You give lessons in parrot fashion love
The same old tete-`-tete in your dreamy feather-bed
You give lessons in parrot fashion love
Drunk and disabled we're both under the table
With the crumbs, in the doldrums we play
Good loving and laughter, we both know what we're after
And there don't seem a lot left to say
`Coming like a habit, `coming like a ritual
The same old tete-`-tete in your dreamy feather-bed
You give lessons in parrot fashion love
The same old tete-`-tete in your dreamy feather-bed
You give lessons in parrot fashion love
Polly want a cracker, polly want a cracker
The same old tete-`-tete in your dreamy feather-bed
You give lessons in parrot fashion love
The same old tete-`-tete in your dreamy feather-bed
You give lessons in parrot fashion love..love love..love.
The same old monotone
You're gonna wind up on your own
You learned your lesson, no more parrot fashion love
