[Intro]
UVB
You
Be careful
(It’s awful)
[Verse 1]
UVB
You’re killing me
DNA
They say
Responsibility
[Chorus]
Bathing in sunlight
Soaking up the rays
Hope it’s alright
The price one pays
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo, Drum Fills]
[Verse 2]
UVB
Getting the best of me
300 nanometers
Atropos, don’t want to meet her
[Chorus]
Bathing in sunlight
Soaking up the rays
Hope it’s alright
The price one pays
[Bridge]
Here comes the sun
And, I say, “It’s not alright.”
Hate to spoil your fun
But, careful with sunlight
[Instrumental, Saxophone Solo, Piano]
[Chorus]
Bathing in sunlight
Soaking up the rays
Hope it’s alright
The price one pays
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo, Drum Fills]
[Outro]
Here comes the sun
And, I say, “It’s not alright.”
Best off saying “done”
Before you’re well done… in the spotlight
A SCIENCE NOTE
UVB radiation from sunlight is the primary wavelength responsible for skin cancer. UVB rays have wavelengths between 280 to 315 nanometers (nm) and are the most effective at causing sunburn and directly damaging the DNA in skin cells.
Ultraviolet Radiation and Skin Cancer: UVB radiation is particularly harmful to the DNA of skin cells. It causes direct DNA damage by forming pyrimidine dimers, which can result in mutations during DNA replication. Prolonged exposure to UVB radiation significantly increases the risk of developing skin cancers, including basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma.
Over 90% of cancers are observed to have some type of genetic alteration. Some of these alterations are inherited, while others are sporadic, which means they occur by chance or occur from environmental exposures (usually over many years).
Who are the three goddesses of death (fate)?
Their names are Clotho (the Spinner), Lachesis (the Allotter), and Atropos (the Inflexible). Clotho spun the “thread” of human fate, Lachesis measured and dispensed it, and Atropos cut the thread, determining the individual’s moment of death.
