Letra Strait Old Line de Split Enz original

(N Finn) - Conflicting Emotions
-=============================================-

Don't look to the left, don't look to the right
just follow that strait old line...

This could be heaven, or this could be hell
Life could be falling down a bottomless well
I stumble to the left, I stumble to the right
I fumble for the switch, of a disconnected light
Stay with it, don't let temptation be your load
Stay with it, but there are bandits on the road

chorus:>
Don't look to the left, don't look to the right
Just follow that strait old line
Don't look to the left, don't look to the right
Just follow that strait old line

The road of ambition, it's a casualty trail
Press gangs wait to ambush
The weak and weary
(stay with it)
I had to explore the light and dark
to see the sharp and flat
There's a hundred or more good reasons
not to ever turn your back

chorus>

Neil:> Take it Eddie!

chorus>
don't move!

'The women that loves you' spoon solo from Noel - the most
beautiful piece of music in the world!>

Noel:> Don't look to the left, don't look to the right
just follow that strait old line.... wait for it!
Tim:> That Crombie Man - this is for the children's children
not something that we did necessarily well just, this evening
but, well I, I was moved, I'm always moved by the sound of those
spoons, they're sort of, smooth, sort of
Noel:> Best silverware for the night Tim, you would have note,
noted the quality ring. I'm sure the audience did.

Stainless steel, it's ok but... sort of where it's at
Tim:> He's talking! Ladies & Gentleman, I I don't know if you
appreciate what we just experienced, but oh my
Noel:> I think it's your turn for a little
Tim:> I don't know if you realise what just happened
Noel:> Well Tim, I think it's your turn for a little story now
Tim:> Well that Crombie man, he's just..
?:> well anything could happen
Noel:> You're getting, you're jumping in on top of me, no look
it's just not good enough
Tim:> Excuse me, uh Noel....

Noel:> They wouldn't like to hear it

something about 'a break'>



Tim:> Sometimes you just have to wail and shout
