The ebay auction is for a cheap pair of bridgeless glasses you would normally find at a truckstop. "Suspension Eyewear" consisted of custom-made prescription lenses, clear or tinted, linked by a solid metal bridge, and monofilament line tying them to hooked plastic earpieces. Wish I had picked up a pair while we were sponsored... Mike G. - |

CHEAP SUNGLASSES When you get up in the morning and the light is hurt your head The first thing you do when you get up out of bed Is hit that streets a-runnin’ and try to beat the masses And go get yourself some cheap sunglasses Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah Spied a little thing and I followed her all night In a funky fine levis and her sweater’s kind of tight She had a west coast strut that was as sweet as molasses But what really knocked me out was her cheap sunglasses Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah (solo) Now go out and get yourself some big black frames With the glass so dark thay won’t even know your name And the choice is up to you cause they come in two classes: Rhinestone shades or cheap sunglasses Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah |
