Sing C'est La Vie
And soon you will see
Your cares will be free
Just sing C'est La Vie
I once knew a man
Who owned a butcher shop
He also had apartments
To rent up on top
But he didn't include on the sign
That he painted "no pets"
And the tenant who rented
Had six hungry dogs he regrets
But he said when things go wrong
Just sing this song
The birds in the trees
Will sing harmony
Sing C'est La Vie
And soon you will see
Your cares will be free
Just sing C'est La Vie
If you think the old women
Who lived in the shoe had it bad
The story of Mrs. Pierre is ten times as sad
Poor woman with twenty-two children
A duck, and two goats in the bin
She was gaily informed by a doctor
That she is having twins
But she said when things go wrong
Just sing this song
The birds in the trees
Will sing harmony
