Public Eye 03:19
In the public eye You can act like an angel And still be the devil inside In the public eye You can kiss the children And wear a pink shirt for gay pride In the public eye You can shake those hands And sell yourself nation-wide In the public eye You can make believe That you're honest and you'd never lie Some people love you And you're not sure why Some really wear you out Life isn't easy in the public eye Life isn't easy at all In the public eye The world is watching The future's in your hands In the public eye Your past may someday Come back to bite you in the ass In the public eye You're a hockey player, a preature or a movie star In the public eye You can fight for peace or you can start a war CHORUS Leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone. CHORUS

TIn Girl 04:06
Tin girl, tin girl, living in a tin world Tin girl, tin girl living in a hard world Like a barefoot ballerina Like a lonely wingless bird Tin girl, tin girl, living in a tin world She claims she's a heiress From a foreign land She's clever and fearless And she's in demand She's a bit of a psychic A social debonnaire And she admits she has a fetish for underwear CHORUS Her life revolves 'round her beauty sleep She swims in waters That are very deep The sight of gold or diamonds Will set her heart ablaze And she admits that her mind is like a maze. CHORUS

Some people say that you never lie I'm very willing to believe them My friends say your lethal, and I wonder why You make me crazy again and again Make me happy, I'm so sad and blue Make me happy, but don't make me die for you Don't you ever dare let me down Just let me get closer to you Blow this sadness away from me That's all you really have to do Make me happy, I'm so sad and blue Make me happy, but don't make me die for you I lied, I gambled, I stole for you And you just messed up, you messed up my head I wanna leave you, but you just lure me back I guess I'll need you, I'll need you 'till I'm dead Make me happy, I'm so sad and blue Make me happy, but don't make me die for you

I wonder why I’m feeling so alone All by myself in the friendzone The music stopped and the Lights, they all went out I tell myself that it’s better this way And start hoping for a better day But the void is real it makes me want to cry It’s impossible to love you We’re worlds apart I tried so hard to love you And it broke my heart I asked my friends if I could die from this How did it go to hell from total bliss. Fire and ice, sour and sweet We are worlds apart If we were colours we’d be black and white I’d be the darkness and you’d be the light Destiny has messed up this time around CHORUS BRIDGE Is there no sense in trying? Is there a light above? Why do we keep on lying If there’s no room for love CHORUS

I Feel 04:00
Strange is when they look at me funny Funny’s when you laugh at my jokes Sad is when a grin becomes a frown Happy’s when I don’t let myself down Scared is when I venture outside the box Lonely is when I’m stuck on a crowded bus Crowded’s when the space around me gets thin Lovely’s when you look at me with your warmest grin I feel, I feel like sometimes I'm going out of my mind I feel I feel it's always' Just a question of time Special is when you praise my feet Strong is when I can stand the heat Stupid’s when I fail to understand Bored is when I don’t really give a damn (Chorus) Angry is when things don’t go my way Old is getting closer every day Hurt is when I ask and you say no Weary’s when I think about tomorrow (Chorus)

I was walking down the street Dazed by the blistering heat Struck by hunger, and dying of thirst I needed to get off my feet My eyes met your's as you served my meal Was I dreaming? That connection was real To my amazement, you asked me out I almost choked right there on my veal We went for a drink in a quiet bar And if we played our cards right Things could go far And as I got closer That perfect scent Made it right I want to love you and kiss you, all night long I want to touch you and feel you, and that ain't wrong I wanna spend lots of time really close to you 'Cause Babe, you smell like lasagna I know you want me, you need me, and I'm so glad That there is that something between us that drives me mad I wanna spend lots of time really close to you 'Cause Babe, you smell like lasagna Roses are red and violets are blue There are so many good things to say about you I love your swagger and I dig your style Your body's just perfect And when you smile You light up the room Like the Tuscan sun Your sensible humour Makes everything fun And as I get closer That perfect scent Makes it right I want to love you and kiss you, all night long I want to touch you and feel you, and that ain't wrong I wanna spend lots of time really close to you 'Cause Babe, you smell like lasagna I know you want me, you need me, and I'm so glad That there is that something between us that drives me mad I wanna spend lots of time really close to you 'Cause Babe, you smell like lasagna

about

This is a departure for DS. I wanted to explore , in my own distinctive way the New Wave/rock, eighties era, and these songs are what came out of that desire. I'm not a singer by any stretch of the imagination but I faced my fears and sung these songs. I finally crossed that barrier after writing songs for more that half a century and frankly, it feels great. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed producing them!!
