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.

Bring Black That Lovin' Feeling

It’s checkup time for me tomorrow and I’m planning not to break my long streak of boringness. But I’ll let you know how it goes. Until then, I’ll leave you with the Hotel Melanoma version of The Righteous Brothers’ “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling”…

You never show inside anymore when docs poke and probe.
And there's no tenderness like before in my old lymph nodes.
You're trying hard not to show it, (Black C).
But Black C, Black C I know it...


You've lost that livin' feeling,
Whoa, that livin' feeling,
You’ve lost that livin' feeling,
Now you’re gone...gone...gone...wooooooh.


Now there's no concerned look in docs’ eyes when they check for you.
And now I’m starting to fantasize that I’m born anew.
It makes me just feel like flying, (Black C).
'Cause Black C, something in you is dying.


You lost that livin' feeling,
Whoa, that livin' feeling,
You've lost that livin' feeling,
Now you’re gone...gone...gone...woooooah


Black C, Black C, I got down on IVs for you.


If you would only leave me like you’re s’posed to do, yeah.


I’ve had some drugs...some drugs...some drugs you won't find everyday.


So don't...don't...don't...don't let them raise co-pay.


Give please (give please), give please (give please),
I beg of you please...please,
We need more bucks (We need more bucks), We need more bucks (We need more bucks),
So we can beat black (So we can beat black), we can beat black (so we can beat black).


Bring black that lovin' feeling,
Whoa, that lovin' feeling
Bring black that lovin' feeling,
’Til it's gone...gone...gone,
and I can't blog on,
noooo...


Bring black that lovin' feeling,
Whoa, that lovin' feeling
Bring black that lovin' feeling,
’Til it's gone...gone...
