The Day My Sunglassses Died - A tragic rock opera - David Ljung Madison I remember the first time I saw them sittin' on the store discount shelf. Sleek black lines, only 9.99, I knew I had to have them myself. CHORUS: It was the perfect pair of sunglasses, yeah, it was the damn near perfect pair. Looking so cool, looking so fine, they even looked good with my hair. We travelled round the world, we saw many sights. My eyes felt cool, no matter how bright. We shared so much, those glasses and I. My life so fulfilled, until the day, the day my sunglasses died. (Chorus) But one rainy day it happened, I think I might've put 'em on too fast. Yes, that was the day that my sunglasses died, The day was our very last. I've searched everywhere to find another pair, of shades, meant just for me. But looking far and wide, I know deep inside, through those lenses, again I won't see. (Chorus) As my eyes squint in the sun, I pen this tragic song. And though I'll never wear another pair again, I realize life must go on, must go on. (Chorus)
