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.

Tannin' Man

To the tune of “Southern Man” by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young…

Tannin’ man
Better keep your head
Don't forget
What your good doc said
Tannin’ change
Gonna come at last
Now it’s cost you
You’re learning fast
Tannin’ man

I saw chemo
And I wear black
Pale white man skin
And SP slacks.
Tannin’ man
When will you
Pay it back?
I learned screenin'
Felt nurse whips cracking
How long? How long?

Tannin’ man
Better ‘screen your head
Don't forget
What your good doc said
Tannin’ change
Gonna come at last
Now your bald head
Is burning fast
Tannin’ man

Jingle Bells,
My hair is grown back now
I'll stop this Black C
Comin' round
Swear by God
I'm gonna cut it down!
I preach screenin'
And tan beds lacking
How long? How long?
