Take Off Your Sunglasses
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My baby went out with her family to a ski resort in Colorado
Well she put on her skis and she slid down hill
Yeah she slid downhill in her bright red mufflers
My baby went out with her family to a ski resort in Colorado
And left me all along for a couple of weeks,
Well she called me up, she said I love you in the middle of the night
I said In the middle of the night everybody loves everybody else these days
She said Oh, in the middle of the day I love you very much
I said, Everybody loves each other these days
I said I don't ever get to go on any vacations
I said I've gotta go to work every day
I said You get to slide downhill in your bright red mufflers
She said I love you, oh I love you in the middle of the day,
and she said
Take off your sunglasses
I don't wanna take my sunglasses
Take off your sunglasses
I said baby the sun is bright
I need my sunglasses
And then I woke up in the middle of the night
one night and I felt so unworthy
I said I woke up in the middle of the night
one night and I felt so unworthy
It didn't bother me too much, I think I am unworthy
And everybody's unworthy of everybody else these days
Everybody's unworthy of everybody else these days
And I don't need to think about things I don't want to think about
She called me up in the middle of the day
She said I love you in the middle of the night
I said In the middle of the night
everybody loves everybody else in the middle of the day
She said
Take off your sunglasses
I don't wanna take my sunglasses
Take off your sunglasses
I said why don't you take off your sunglasses
She said I already have
I don't want to think about
things I don't want to think about in the middle of the night
In the middle of the day I don't want to think about
things I don't want to think about in the middle of the night
I don't want to think about it
I don't want to think about it
I don't want to take off my sunglasses
Everybody's unworthy and
Everybody loves everybody else and
Everybody takes off their sunglasses
Oh baby I don't want to fall into the patterns
Oh baby, she said
Take off your sunglasses
I don't wanna take my sunglasses
Take off your sunglasses
I said that's like me asking you to take out your shoelaces
So she took out her shoelaces
