Did you sit out by the pool? <br />Did you lay out in the sand? <br />Did you get it from a bottle? <br />Is it also in you hands? <br /> <br />Did you fake bake? <br />Do you have any lines? <br />Did you stay too long? <br />Is it really tan all under those clothes? <br /> <br />What is a matter, <br />What is wrong, <br />Why do we go to such lengths, <br />Just to get bronze! <br /> <br />Now matter what color you might be now, <br />I can tell you without a doubt, <br />Tan is better, <br />And this is true, <br />It just has to be better because of all the tings I have gone through. <br /> <br />Waiting, baking, basting in the sun, <br />Rubbing, rubbing, when will it all be done. <br />Finally, I decided, screw it all, <br />I would go and buy a tan. <br /> <br />I would be the tannest of them all. <br />Off I went on my quest, <br />I went searching and had a ball. <br />No place is perfect, <br />They were all the same, <br />The only thing I learned was how to play the game. <br /> <br />I asked each one for a free trial membership. <br />Just a day or two. <br />After all I wanted to see what they could do. <br />I then changed places everyday, <br />After a month, <br />I had a tan, <br />And it didn't cost me a arm and leg, <br />Well, that may not be exactly true, <br />Someday, I may develop skin cancer, <br />Sun spots, and age spots too, <br />Maybe I would be better off, <br />Not looking so hot. <br />And just cooling off!<br /><br />Nadalia Bagratuni<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-spray-on-tan/
