Monday Gladness

Just a little lyrical nonsense for my new ‘bodyguards’ at the University of Colorado Hospital Dermatology Clinic, to the tune of Paul Simon’s “You Can Call Me Al”…



A man blogs ‘bout sun C
He says why am I lost in the riddles now
Why am I lost in the riddles
The best of my hide is so scarred
I fleed a photo-opportunity
I want long stop at remission
Don't want to end up a scartoon
In a scartoon graveyard
Moledigger Moledigger
Docs skin a new fright
Scars today and I’m well-skinned more
Mr. Fearbelly fearbelly
Get these spots away from me
You know I don't find this stuff amusing anymore

If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you M.D.
And M.D. when you call C
You can call me pal

A man blogs ‘bout sun C
He says why am I short of attention
Got a short little span of attention
And wo my frights are so long
Bare my hide, man’s tannin’ free
What if I lie here
Who'll be my mole-model
Now that my mole-model is
Gone Gone
C ducked back down the alley
With some holy-moly clin’cal fast-paced cure
All along along
There were incidents and accidents
There were threats and scan elations

If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you M.D.
And M.D. when you call C
You can call me pal
Call me pal

A man blogs ‘bout sun C
It's a C with a strange world
Maybe it's the Third World
Maybe it's his first time around
He doesn't speak the language
He holds no currency
He is a foreign man
He is surrounded by the sound
The sound
Battle in the clinic place
Scanner things and more brands of drugs
He looks around, around
He sees angels in the architecture
Skinning in infinity
He says Amen and Hallelujah!

If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you M.D.
And M.D. when you call C
You can call me pal
Call me pal
