Growin' In The Skin

It’s going to be a gorgeous fall day here in Colorado, so I’ll be heading off to the golf course to play whatever game it is I play out there. All I know for sure is that it bears no resemblance whatsoever to the game played by the stars featured in this great new PGA Tour Skin Cancer Awareness Video.

I’ll sign off with a little lyrical nonsense, to the tune of Bob Dylan’s “Blowing In The Wind”…



How many moles must a man bake brown
Before you call him too tan?
How many ‘screens must a white boy fail
Before C creeps into scans?
Yes, and how many times must the tanning halls fry
Before they're forever banned?
The answer my friend is growin’ in the skin
The answer is growin’ in the skin.

Yes, and how many years can a mole man exist
Before he’s hatched some Skin C?
Yes, and how many years can sun people resist
Before they're in shroud from UV?
Yes, and how many times can a man burn his head
Pretending he just lost his ‘screen?
The answer my friend is growin’ in the skin
The answer is growin’ in the skin.

Yes, and how many times must this man look up
Before he can see ball fly?
Yes, and how many strokes must one man have
Before he is near to pin high?
Yes, and how many deaths will it take ‘til we know
That too many people have fried?
The answer my friend is growin’ in the skin
The answer is growin’ in the skin.
