The sun is strong and we still haven't learned   Your skin is pale and it's gonna burn   Little white flakes falling down to the ground   Dead and gone without a sound   New skin cells being born together   Trying to live in this nasty weather   Fighting hard just to say alive   But in this bright sun it's hard to survive      Oh the sol    goes down   So slow   on the western coast      A little trip to the beach for the day   You've got your shades and her bain de solei   You look so nice in the waves together   You wish this moment would last forever   Well don't look now but there's that other fella   Long sleeved shirt and a beach umbrella   They can't say that you never tried   But now your skin is red and you heart is fried      Oh the sol   goes down   So slow   on the western coast      Don't be afraid to get burned    Everybody has their turn   It's gonna hurt   You're gonna peel and scratch   But sooner or later you'll be back
