about

"SECRET SINEMA" was the A-side of my second single and is my most popular song. It got lots of college radio airplay and made me a contender to play Jim Morrison in The Doors movie prior to Val Kilmer landing the role. (The word cinema is purposely misspelled to include the word sin.)

Synthesizers: Moog MICROMOOG, Moog POLYMOOG 203A.

lyrics

"SECRET SINEMA"

Behind my eyes, I watch an arcane beam
As it pours your face across the silver screen;
Six times or a thousand, I can’t tell,
Haunting me inside my private hell.

Welcome to the Secret Sinema!
Welcome to the Secret Sinema!

I get, when I wish to be alone,
Terror and mutiny on the phone.
It’s either she or they who seem to call.
Nothing can console me more than these walls!

Welcome to the Secret Sinema!
Welcome to the Secret Sinema!

Another script of chaos reigns supreme
With time to complete one more scene.
Pulsating through the endless night,
Dialoguing synapses burn bright.

Welcome to the Secret Sinema!
(A grim exhibition!)
Welcome to the Secret Sinema!
(An eclipse of moods!)
Welcome to the Secret Sinema!
(A dangerous vision!)
Welcome to the Secret Sinema!
