On the day I was born, the sun refused to hide, Mama screamed “Lord help me!” as the tide rolled high. Flip-flops meltin’, SPF long gone, That UV index hit me like a blowtorch song! 🎶 I’m burnt… I’m burnt to the bone! B-B-B-B-Burnt! Burnt to the bone! 🎶 ⸻ Strollin’ the beach, skin startin’ to moan, My shoulders glowin’ like a traffic cone. Tourists starin’, yeah, my tan’s full-blown, ‘Cause I’m crispy, baby — burnt to the bone! ⸻ 🎶 I’m burnt to the bone! Yeah, burnt to the bone! Hotter than asphalt, that’s my tone! I’m burnt to the bone! 🎶 ⸻ Met a girl from Jersey, said “Honey, you’re fried.” I said, “Down here, darlin’, that’s Florida pride.” She said “Need aloe?” I said “Leave me alone! I’m marinated, baby — burnt to the bone!” ⸻ I don’t need sunscreen, I don’t need shade, I just need a cold beer and a little parade. From Daytona to Key West, my glow’s well known — They call me Solar Sally… burnt to the bone! ⸻ 🎶 B-B-B-B-Burnt! Burnt to the bone! Red, shiny, blister-prone! Yeah I’m burnt… burnt to the bone! 🎶
