Diary of a Ginger

Genealogy — Face the Shadow

How I dread all these days of melting away
Sun is beaming her rays, eternal shine
When all temperatures rise, I feel such a yearning inside
Hide in the shadow, go and hide

Since I was but a child life's been unfair
Never got to go out, white bitch beware!
Skin turned red in a flash, remember the way I felt fried
Hide in the shadow, go and hide

Tired of sunscreen, SPF 50
I feel so greasy, like lard

So out of reach
A day on the beach
I will stay inside
Or I'll die

Tried a tanning bed once, terrible thing
Came out sizzling, a well done piece of meat
I'll be glow-in-the-dark, forever so UV deprived
Hide in the shadow, petrified

Wear a kaftan and hat, it's fashion
But where is my parasol?

My parasol
I'm hysterical
Help, I'm gonna cry
Cause I'll die

See the signs
Read between the lines
Guess I can't deny
I'm a child
Of the night!
