Introduction

The "Hotel Melanoma" moniker is a metaphor for living with my particular brand of cancer. Except for those lucky few of us deemed "cured", all we cancer survivors are guests of one of the many, many branded hotels in the "Hotel Carcinoma" chain. We can check out any time we like, but we can never leave. Meanwhile, let's be livin' it up; and please support cancer education, prevention, and treatment research.

Cancer Doc Rock

To end this year’s Hotel Melanoma Christmas Album (“A Skin-deep Christmas”), here’s one from the 50’s-- Bobby Helms’ “Jingle Bell Rock”…

Cancer doc, cancer doc, cancer doc rock
Cancer docs probe and cancer docs scope
Scannin', examinin’ up bushels of fun
Now the cancer clock starts to run

Cancer doc, cancer doc, cancer doc rock
Cancer docs arrive in cancer doc time
Diagnosin’, prognosin’ is cancer doc’s fare
There’s confusion there!

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Cancer doc time is a swell time
To go scannin’ on a two-scan day

Hurry-up cancer doc, slow down C’s speed
Workin’ around the clock
Shoot Interferon for Black C’s defeat
That's the cancer doc rock

Cancer doc, cancer doc, cancer doc rock
Cancer docs treat and cancer docs meet
Speakin', conferrin’ at cancer doc fair
Academics there!

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Cancer doc time is a swell time
To go ‘fusin' in an IV way

Hurry-up cancer doc, cancer defeat
Searchin’ around the clock
Cure melanoma, a wonderful feat
That's the cancer doc
That's the cancer doc
That's the cancer doc rock
