The Lyrics
What’s an umbrella do
in the sunshine?
It keeps UV rays off of you
so not fryin’
are you, not fryin’.
Yes, it comes in handy
when sun’s shinin’ down.
Better than a hattie
for keeping nasty rays off your crown.
Raise that umbrella to
the sun that shines,
daytime.
Here’s a clue:
it is U-
V rays do
harm to you.
So, right now
Put it up there—
that black canopy—
above your brow.
Don’t fear the
sun; with umbrella you
will be just fine!
in the sunshine?
