Coppertone lyrics

by

Jill Sobule



[Verse 1]
Cindy never burned, she got so dark
Her badges of honor held by strap line marks
Then there was me with the oversize T
Protecting my tender pink shoulders
"Hey, Marco Polo," the younger kids screeched
Cindy yelled back when the splashes had reached
Our chaise lounge chairs, but she didn't care
Just reapplied more Coppertone

[Chorus]
Squeeze the brown bottle and pour on thе gold
We always use number four Coppеrtone
Over the stomach and back of the thighs
Stay 'til the clock strikes five

[Verse 2]
Cindy's mom bought her a two-piece suit
While I was Speedo gym class blue
That summer in Florida, wished I was you
All the girls wished they were you
"Can I climb on your shoulders?" boy said to his dad
Unaware Dad had been staring at
That girl with the tan as he pictured his hand
Rubbing in Coppertone
[Chorus]
Squeeze the brown bottle and pour on the gold
We only use number four Coppertone
We sunned 'til 8 and then more the next day
Coppertone goes all the way

[Bridge]
Remember the scent of concrete and heat
Coconut mixed with chlorine and meat
Cindy rose over right next to me
A voice half asleep
Asking me, "Please
Dottie, can you get my back?"

[Verse 1]
Cindy never burned, she got so dark
Her badges of honor held by strap line marks
Then there was me with the oversize T
Protecting my tender pink shoulders
