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.

The Bloggin' Blues

Just The Hotel Melanoma rendition of The Allman Brothers Band’s “Whippin’ Post”…




I've been sun brown
I've been fried through
And I don't know why ... I let that mean sun tan make me a fool
C took all my money ... wrecked my few pars
Now C’s skinned some of my sun-fried buddies ... they're sinkin’ in some boss brown scars
Sometimes I feel
Sometimes I feel ... like I've been tied to the bloggin' post
Tied to the bloggin' post
Tied to the bloggin' post
Good Lord I feel like I'm smilin'


My docs tell me ... that I've been such a fool
And I have to stand by and take that Black C ... all for lovin' U
I drown myself in chemo ... as I look at what U’s done
But nothin' seems to change ... my bad rhymes stay the same ... and I can't sun
Sometimes I feel
Sometimes I feel ... like I've been tied to the flippant post
Tied to the flippant post
Tied to the flippant post
Good Lord I feel like I'm smilin'


Sometimes I feel
Sometimes I feel ... like I've been tied to the flippant post
Tied to the flippant post
Tied to the flippant post
Good Lord I feel like I'm smilin’
