lyrics

I didn’t know she didn’t know I should have asked her
Instead I thought I’d stick around at her place after
Took off my watch I put it down right next to hers when
She went to get a drink I closed the curtain

Anxiety it came to me as inspiration
I held my hand I bit my tongue mid-conversation
She turned her back to me and wished me goodnight
And the rest is just exactly what it sounds like

Fool am I fool am I

I fell asleep I saw a thousand things and more there
Driving along a bumpy road middle of nowhere
The ghost of fingerprints all up and down the bonnet
My mouth open just to hear the sound come from it

Now she’s talking like she’s throwing up confetti
She says I never look her in the eyes directly
There’s some excuse but I just can’t seem to begin it
The bed unmade and body-warm as we lie in it

I should have known I should have known what I was missing
That you can learn a lot by lying still and listening
The moment cupped against my palm to slowly turn it
If there’s a harder way by now I would have learned it

Fool am I fool am I

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”. ... more
