lyrics

I’ve never been one for choosing sides but when I met your old man
I felt that fate had come as fate sometimes can
By any other name I was dusted and done
I was a blink of an eye

I tried to exchange the uncertainty of happiness for
The simpler happiness of the certain and sure
If it sounds easy you could give it a try
Whatever gets you out of bed

It’s not always a plus leading a little life you could talk in your sleep
A little bitten back could get stuck in your teeth
I’m not saying it was that way with us
Your father laughed a lot

Was the closest he got to escaping inhibition I guess
He never understood the states of undress
It takes to spend the night in true restfulness

I’m bound to forget there’s always something else competing for space
Between the thought and the said I can’t hardly wait
I’m on tenterhooks I won’t come down just yet
Somebody drink to my health

When all’s said and done it’s not him I miss it’s the story we made
Our own remembrance we’re all given a page
I didn’t know the what or why at the time
But I knew I had to write something

about

The Finks Melbourne, Australia

The Finks play the songs of Oliver Mestitz. They are sincere but flippant, intimate but aloof, subtle but unpolished.

The Finks have released a steady stream of quietly uncompromising music via Milk! Records since 2012 – three EPs, two cassettes, four LPs and a handful of singles. Critics have described The Finks as “crushingly beautiful” and “perhaps the most underrated act in Australian music”.
