Selling Our Secrets
Lyrics by Fran Landesman
We're all selling our secrets
Trying to gain some visibility
Grabbing a handle on celebrity
We're telling out tales
We're all selling our stories
Making the most out of a love affair
Laying the seamy inner landscapes bare
We're making some sales
What the great man said. How he was in bed
With a picture spread
So we turn a trick - we're just doing shtick
Till they make the flick
We're all spelling it right out
Stripping the attics of our private lives
Stories of buggery and murdered wives
The sex, the star trips, the scenes
Telling our secrets
Selling our dreams
from
"The Thorny Side of Love"
