Sunburn

David Lee Roth · Your Filthy Little Mouth [2007]

First I take my finger

And put it on your skin

Makes a little white mark

And then it turns to red again

So if you're lazy on a Sunday

And you got nothin' to do

And you wanna get a sunburn

Come on up to the roof

I think your nose is peelin'

The sun is hot and clear

The city's fairly steamin'

I can taste your skin from here

So if you're lazy on a Sunday

Any Tuesday'll do

And you wanna get a Sunburn

Come on up to the roof

See, I was up here yesterday

Saw some pigeons on a power line

Looked like notes upon a music paper

I wrote it down

I guess Manhatten

Gets the last line

Sounds like...

Sunburn - David Lee Roth

Recorded during a period where Roth revisited his classic sound, the song captures the raw energy and theatricality that characterized his career peak in the late 1980s. As a staple of his discography, the recording exemplifies the high-octane delivery and melodic hooks that made him a cornerstone of 80s hair metal. The track remains a potent representation of his work, highlighting his talent for crafting anthems that resonate with fans who appreciate both his musical prowess and his unique, unapologetic stage persona.
