Biography:
Split Enz was one of the most successful and longest running bands ever to emerge from New Zealand. Founded in 1972 by Tim Finn and Phil Judd, and with a variety of other members during its existence, eight songs Split Enz were listed in the APRA Top 100 New Zealand Songs of All Time, more than any other band. The band played its final show on 4 December 1984 in Auckland. One-off reunions took place subsequently, with the band reuniting in 1993 for its twentieth anniversary tour and once more for a tour in 2006.

[1st Verse]
D Bb C Bb A
Nobody listens to a word that I say, and at work I'm just a foreman’s tool
D Bb C Bb A
Sitting in the corner with my coffee & tray, all the secretaries think I'm a fool
F D
I don't want to suffer these conditions no more
F Bb
Haven't I the right to say
F D
I don't want to suffer these conditions no more
[Chorus]
F Bb
Nobody takes me seriously anyway

Nobody takes me seriously anyway
Bb C F
Nobody takes me seriously anyway

D Bb C Bb A
Loves not a glimpse, it's a permanent rinse, and it keeps you on your toes all day
D Bb C Bb A
Every girl I met seemed to get apathetic when I looked at her that special way

I can't get nobody else to take me for real
F Bb
They like to keep me tucked away

Even if they listened to what I had to say
[Chorus]

Nobody’d take me seriously anyway

Nobody takes me seriously anyway
Bb C F
Nobody takes me seriously anyway

If war broke out I'd be the last one to know, if there was a fire they'd just leave me to burn

I got just as much to say as any man, but I never seem to get my turn
F D
I don't want to suffer these conditions no more

Haven't I the right to say
F D
I don't want to suffer these conditions no more
