Zaz had red hair, he didnt care
He always laughed loud, he wasnt proud
Just a real easy guy who wouldnt tell a lie
But then one day Zaz turned blue
Zaz turned blue, what were we supposed to do
Zaz turned blue, what were we supposed to do
When Zaz turned blue
One night in the park for a lark
Zaz let Steve Brown fool around
Steve squeezed his neck, figured what the heck
But Zaz hit the ground, he was downed
Zaz turned blue, what were we supposed to do
Zaz turned blue, what were we supposed to do
When Zaz turned blue
After high school Zaz seemed cool
He worked on cars, went to bars
But then one day he went away
And became a Marine at the age of eighteen
But he didnt want to fight
Didnt do it out of spite
And he didnt want to die
No, he didnt want to die
And he seemed kind of strange
Could it be that he changed
On that night in the park
When he fainted in the dark
Zaz didnt die, lucky guy
There were no parades, how the glory fades
Now he shoots lots of pool and as a rule
He wears a silly grin on his chin
It all started when
Zaz turned blue, what were we supposed to do
Zaz turned blue, what were we supposed to do
When Zaz turned blue
