Even the sun
In his full regalia
Is helpless
When I wear
My small dark glasses

Even the moon
And darkness, his friend
Cannot stop me
From wearing
My small dark glasses

Even parents
Who tell me to do so many things
Must bow
When I wear
My small dark glasses

Even regal authority
Can pass no law
To forbid me
From wearing
My small dark glasses

Because they know
Thirty years ago
They also wanted
A pair of
Small Dark Glasses
