Zak And Sara Lyrics

Sara spelled without an 'h' was getting bored

 On a Peavea amp in 1984

 While Zak without a 'c' tried out some new guitars

 Playing Sara-with-no-h's favourite song

 

 (La da da da, la da da, la da da)

 (La da da da, la da da, la da da) 

 

 Zak and Sara

 

 Often Sara would have spells where she lost time

 She saw the future, she heard voices from inside

 The kind of voices she would soon learn to deny

 Because at home they got her smacked

 

 (La da da da, la da da, la da da)

 (La da da da, la da da, la da da) 

 

 Zak and Sara

 Zak and Sara

 

 Zak called his dad about layaway plans

 And Sara told the friendly salesman that:

 "You'll all die in your cars,

 And why's it gotta be dark?

 And you're all working in a submarine"

 

 (Asshole) 

 

 She saw the lights, she saw the pale English face

 Some strange machines repeating beats and thumping bass

 Visions of pills that put you in a loving trance

 That make it possible for all white boys to dance

 And when Zak finished Sara's song, Sara clapped

 

 (La da da da, la da da, la da da)

 (La da da da, la da da, la da da) 

 

 Zak and Sara
