How would you rewrite this snippet without using eval?

Hi all,

I'm rewriting a script trying to avoid using functions that might pose
a security threat if used incorrectly.
I have a portion of code that looks like the one pasted below.
I don't seem to be able to avoid using eval without introducing too
many changes, losing in simplicity.

Here's the code:

<?php

echo Logic::getFirstValue(); // Output: first value

class Logic {
	public static function getFirstValue() {
		return Data::getData('$firstArray','firstKey');
	}
}

class Data {
	private static $firstArray = array ('firstKey'=>'first value');
	private static $secondArray = array ('secondKey'=>'second value');
	public static function getData($array, $key) {
		$string = 'return self::'.$array.'[\''.$key.'\'];';
		return eval ($string);
	}
}

?>


How would you rewrite the snippet without using eval and still keeping
things very straightforward?

Thanks for your attention!
