Zak called his Dad, about lay away plans

You’ll all die in your cars

She saw the light she saw a pale English face
D D/C Gm7/B Gm7/Bb
Some strange machines repeating beats and thumping bass
Em A
Pitchers of pills that put you in a loving trance
Em A
That make it possible for all white boys to dance
Em A
And when Zak finished Sara’s song, Sara clapped.
