This creep won’t be seeing the world through rose-colored glasses anymore.

Police busted the homeless man who was wearing a Santa Claus hat and red shades when he groped two women in a Flatiron subway station, authorities said Thursday.

David Cruz, 33, was arrested when two officers spotted him littering near Bryant Park and approached him around 3:30 a.m. Wednesday.

When the cops confronted Cruz, they realized he was wearing the Santa hat and rose-colored sunglasses — the same getup worn by the suspect during last month’s attack, police said.

The officers cuffed Cruz and charged him with two counts of forcible touching, police said.

He allegedly fondled two women, 32 and 34, at the 23rd Street station along the R and W train lines Feb. 8.

One of the women snapped a photo of the groper, and passed it along to police.

Cruz, who also goes by the street alias “El Loco,” has 17 prior arrests for crimes including burglary, grand larceny, drug possession and assault, police sources said.
