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.

Callin' out around the world, are you ready for a brand new treat?
Summer's near and the time is right for sunscreen oh so sweet.
'Screenin’ from Black Cancer (sunscreen is so sweet)
Down into your genes (sunscreen is so neat)
It’s our pale ditty

All we need is new meds, sweet new meds,
There'll be new meds everywhere
There'll be skin checks, scannin’, and tan bed bannin’,
’Screenin’ is so sweet

Oh it sure does matter what you wear, just as long as you’re out there.
So come on every guy, grab a cure,
Everywhere, around the world

They'll be screenin', cause sunscreen is so neat.
This is an invitation, across the nation,
Black C is ours to beat.
There'll be laughin', singin', and new meds winnin'
Sunscreen is so sweet

Melanoma’s our prey, more and more are C-free now,
Don't forget that pale is pretty,
All we need is new meds, sweet new meds
There'll be new meds everywhere
There'll be beggin', prayin', insurance payin’,
Sunscreen is so sweet

Oh it sure does matter what you wear, just as long as you’re out there.
So come on every guy, grab a cure,
Everywhere, around the world

We’re screenin', Black C can be beat
Come down Saturday, on that day we’re walkin’ for defeat
Lets form a big strong line, and end C’s time,
This cancer we’ll defeat.
Across the ocean blue, molemates through
Our scannin’ is complete
