lyrics
I'm balancing ultraviolet rays and vitamin D
I'm determined to defeat my depression with heat
And regular sleep, I need
Sunscreen lotion to allow my emotions to breathe
Or all this time I spend inside is going to kill me
I'm balancing ultraviolet rays and vitamin D
On these sunny Sundays, proverbial Mondays will creep
And jump out in front of my eyes
Like fluorescent lights buzz and whine in the ceiling
There's always time for it to rain
But today I'll get my dose of vitamin D
I'm balancing ultraviolet rays and vitamin D
If I'm not careful, it'll make my skin peel and sting
Until one day I'll open my eyes to not feeling quite right
With the doctor in front of me
Telling me all of his stories of patients like me
And how I need to stay positive, but
How am I too beat a thing
If I can get my dose of vitamin D
I'll be patient with the sun
With all her fickle contradictions and her bleeding love
I'll keep waiting for the one
Single day when she'll display herself
And I'll fall asleep in the canopy above
I'll be drinking every drop from her cup
I'm balancing ultraviolet rays and vitamin D
I need to be persuaded to unglue my eyes from the TV
And lay down face-up to the sky
While the passage of time moves around and in front of me
And the robins are singing a melody
And I'll be able to sleep
There's always time for it to rain
But today I'll get my dose of vitamin D
