Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I got somethin' to say to you and you better listen
I'ma tell ya how to be cool in one easy lesson, go
[Chorus]
Sunglasses after dark
Ah, they're so sharp
And you'll be cool
And the squares'll drool
It's real simple
Sunglasses after dark
Ah, they're so sharp
[Instrumental]
Listen to this
Went out last Saturday night
Got myself in a knife fight
Everybody got cut includin' me
'Cause not one of us cats could see
See, we had on S.A.D.
That's right
I was hangin' around on the street
When this great big guy ran right into me
I could hardly make him out, everything was so dim
But then I seen what was wrong with him
He was wearin' sunglasses after dark
[Chorus]
Sunglasses after dark
Woo, they're so sharp
Sunglasses after dark
Woo, it's so simple
[Instrumental]
Uh, where am I, by the way?
Oh, yeah
