The Lyrics

Whites in light baskin'
Hoping to get a tan
White as a snowflake
Just ain't part of their plan

Look what the sun has missed
For shoes that I wore
Kept my feet whiter
Than the sands on the shore

Yes I'd love to
Tan a shade too
Oh yes, I'd love to

Can't really help it
How I was born
Whiter than a lily
On an April morn

Some try to tell me
it ain't good for my skin
Just how will you look with
That suntan in the end?

Ghosts that say boo
They want a tan too
They want a tan too

Whites in light baskin'
Still some whites will defend
Their fair complexion
Cause the sun ain't their friend

Beauty is every hue
Your mind can conceive
Armed with that knowledge
I should feel so relieved

But I'd love to
Tan a shade too
Oh yes, I'd love to

I was hoping this was about Baskin-Robbins ice cream.

Michael, yes, if you're looking for 31 flavors, you're liable to be a little upset by reading my parody--hope you're having a good summer. You make me laugh even if I don't make you laugh.

I'm all set to parody this OS myself, so I was interested in how you attacked it, Royce - great idea, and some very clever lines - 555
