You know who you are

Spray on tan
Is in demand
Like butter to a pan
I cannot understand

UV rays soaking in your skin
With no protection
They look like toast, may the danger begin
As the sun hits you in every direction

Skin Cancer is no joke at all
As we enter the summer season now
Millions are effected as I recall
If we can only end this obsession somehow?

The appearance of our bodies, perfection is overrated
Yet many welcome this well known danger
Attraction is often debated
Over use of this product is no stranger

Like tanning salons, society craves it more and more
Which deeply scares me
As we damage ourselves from the inner and outer core
Can anyone notice and agree?

The price that many will pay
For the decisions they have made
As the sun is very hot today
A risk for beauty in life's crusade
