Good news from future you
From here it looks as though there’s nothing else
There’s no one but yourself
There’s no better you
There’s no such place as somewhere where you’re someone else
You’re no one but yourself
It’s you you’re no one else
There’s no particular magic to it
Whoever struck up the matchstick blew it
If revenge is what you’re thinking of
Don’t take it on the ones you love
You’ve only got yourself
What’s more the more
You have the more that you’ll want something else
You’ve only got yourself
It’s you there’s no one else

It's such a joke what he asked me to do
He must think I'm a fool
Janine don't go with those guys
What's in it for you
In another day your dream it will appear
I touched you on the arm
You were so warm
It's such a joke what he asked me to do
He must think I'm a fool
Janine you know I'm your friend
Whatever they say
In another day your dream it will appear
I touched you on the arm
I meant you no harm
He must think I'm a fool
Janine you know I'm your friend
Whatever they say
In another day
Your dream it will appear

I spent my childhood walking the wildwood
Down along the Dixie Line
Freight trains a-squalin’ eyeballs a-ballin’
Four engines at a time
I was so happy with mama and pappy
Down along the Dixie Line
Can’t you hear those drivers wail
Can’t you see those bright rails shine
Gonna catch that fireball man
Leave the northland far behind
I caught a civvy train to the city
The day that I fulfilled my time
She said she missed me the moment we kissed
She’d bottled up her tears like brine
Her tiny veranda the sweet oleander
Down along the Dixie Line

You looked like a princess the night we met
With your hair piled high I’ll never forget
I’m drunk right now baby but I’ve gotta be
To tell you just how much you mean to me
I loved you the first time I saw you
And I always will love you Marie
You’re the song that the trees sing when the wind blows
You’re a flower you’re a river you’re a rainbow
Sometimes I’m crazy I guess you know
I’m weak and I’m lazy and I hurt you so
I don’t listen to a word you say
And when you’re in trouble I just turn away
I loved you the first time I saw you
And I always will love you Marie

Close your eyes close the door
You don’t have to worry anymore
I’ll be your baby tonight
Shut the light shut the shade
You don’t have to be afraid
I’ll be your baby tonight
That mockingbird’s gonna sail away
We’re gonna forget it
That big fat moon’s gonna shine like a spoon
We’re gonna let it you won’t regret it
Kick your shoes off, do not fear
Bring that bottle over here
I’ll be your baby tonight

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”.
