Brand new single from Eric Din
The A side!
A man is an island
Unto a shining black mirage
A man is in silence
As he moves through the garage
Can’t complain, he plays the game,
He’s happy to be alive on this fine day
Though he don’t belong here,
A castaway cast in some role,
He never tried out for,
It’s been so long since he’s been whole
Can’t complain, the old refrain,
He’s happy to be alive on one more day
I start to wonder,
Am I not alien?
When I see another,
Am I not alien?
Am I not alien?
Out on a mission,
Ready to conquer planets,
A man has gone AWOL,
Cos he thought better of it he just met,
Another stray, she’d like to stay,
They’re happy to be alive on this fine day
And still I wonder,
Am I not alien?
When I see another,
Am I not alien?
Am I not alien?
One in a million,
It’s only natural to find,
Just when you don’t care, and you’re nowhere,
Out of the blue someone arrives,
To change your mind, and set you right,
I’m ready to come alive on one more day
And still I wonder,
Am I not alien?
As I cross the border,
Am I not alien?
Am I not alien?
Am I not alien?
Hmmm

And the B side!
Yes we have B sides. We like to think we do. Here are the lyrics as scrawled. Audio in the player above. Like a record. With two sides.
