Zak And Sara Lyrics - Ben Folds

Sara spelled without an 'h' was getting bored 

On a Peavea amp in 1984 

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

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

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 

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 

Zak and Sara 

Zak and Sara
