C Est La Vie lyrics

A woman came and said to me
She`d seen a lady sell her baby
For ten or twenty dollars maybe
And everybody thinks she`s crazy
They`re too blind to see
She never failed to call attention
To the things we never mention
Real horror, daily, courtesy of your TV
C`est La Vie

Chorus

A woman came and said to me
Now listen very carefully
There`s brother killing brother
People living on their knees
Biting sugar coated bullets
For the pain of this disease
C`est La Vie

A woman came and said to me
She had a husband on an island
Found his body on a wasteland
Soldiers came and took him
Just to torture her you see
All alone she mourned her lover
Crossed the sea to find a brother
Maybe he could help her get her baby back for free
C`est La Vie

Chorus
