IN THE PUBLIC'S EYE May 14/85 Karl Rigelhof

Read it in the gossip papers
See it on pay TV
Did you hear about their latest capers
It's spread across the pages
Of you're favorite magazine

It's all over town
My how the word gets around
What's their newest escapade
It's all just a big charade
It's obscene

Anything you say
Everything you do
Every single day
There's always something new
It can all be used for or against you

If you refuse to even try
They think you have something to hide
If you do not tell
If you choose to let it ride
They will condemn you to hell

It may eat you up inside
They will cut you down to size
Throw away your pride
And spill your guts
No if's, and's, or but's
They don't want the facts
Just the juicy lies

CHORUS:
In the public's eye
You're under scrutiny
They're quick to criticize
Attempted mutiny

You cannot break their mold
They've got you in their hold
They've cast you in this role
You cannot escape with(out) (losing) your soul

They have made you what you are
(A bright and shining/y star)
(So don't you cry)
In the public's eye
