(Verse 1)
The sun beats down, a golden glow so grand,
Chasin' a feeling across the land.
They track the UV on a little screen,
Chasin' that perfect, bronzed-up scene.
The sprays and needles, a dangerous game,
To feel that beauty, to have that fame.

(Chorus)
Oh, the sunbed glow, the price you pay,
For a bit of light to brighten your day.
But behind the heat, a risk you can’t deny,
A burn notice written in the sky.
You wanna look healthy, you wanna look alive,
But denial's the game where the truth won't thrive.

(Verse 2)
A Gen-Z Influencer, she got her prom tan,
A little lie to herself, the very best she can.
On TikTok feeds, the pictures shine so bright,
A million people bathed in a dangerous light.
The doctors all warn, the dangers are clear,
But you're just living, conquering your fear.

(Chorus)
Oh, the sunbed glow, the price you pay,
For a bit of light to brighten your day.
But behind the heat, a risk you can’t deny,
A burn notice written in the sky.
You wanna look healthy, you wanna look alive,
But denial's the game where the truth won't thrive.

(Verse 3)
A Millennial Seth, with a carefree mind,
Says a sunbed danger is so small to find.
He's chasing a look, an expensive design,
While the clock keeps ticking down the line.
He’s got his package, he’s in a haze,
In a world that loves the tanned-up craze.

(Chorus)
Oh, the sunbed glow, the price you pay,
For a bit of light to brighten your day.
But behind the heat, a risk you can’t deny,
A burn notice written in the sky.
You wanna look healthy, you wanna look alive,
But denial's the game where the truth won't thrive.

(Verse 4)
A young content creator, a story to be told,
A young person fighting, a truth so bold.
He beat the cancer, but the scars remain,
The sunbed gamble, the endless pain.
He warns the others, from his platform high,
Don't live in denial 'til you have to say goodbye.

(Chorus)
Oh, the sunbed glow, the price you pay,
For a bit of light to brighten your day.
But behind the heat, a risk you can’t deny,
A burn notice written in the sky.
You wanna look healthy, you wanna look alive,
But denial's the game where the truth won't thrive.
