Zaz Turned Blue - Was (Not Was)

Zaz had red hair

He didn’t care

He always laughed loud

He wasn’t proud

Just a real easy guy

Wouldn’t tell a lie

But then one day

Zaz turned blue

Zaz turned blue

What were we supposed to do

Yeah, 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

Figure what the heck

But Zaz hit the ground

He was down

Oh, Zaz turned blue

What were we supposed to do

Yeah, Zaz turned blue

What were we supposed to do

When Zaz turned blue

After high school

Zaz was cool

He worked on cars

He went to bars

And then one day

He went away

He became a marine

At the age of eighteen

But he didn’t want to fight

Didn’t do it out of spite

And he didn’t want to die

No he didn’t 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 didn’t die

Lucky guy

There were no parades

How the glory fades

Now he shoots lots of pool

And as a rule

Wears a silly grin

On his chin

It all started when

Zaz turned blue

What were we supposed to do

Yeah, when Zaz turned blue

What were we supposed to do

When Zaz turned blue
