C’est La Vie - Live From The C’est La Vie Tour
Act one
"Surrounded on all sides in an increasingly difficult situation
Is there still the possibility of escape?"
Well
Yeah, life begins at five to eight
No time to waste, it will not wait
A laying that was yesterday
Up and at 'em and into the fray
There'll be no time to capture breath
The enemy of life is death
So sweep the hallway, mop the wall
Your destiny's about to call
Well
The legislation's in the bag
Justice, a toothless old hag
It's every man now on his own
It's all for one, you better run
And stand up tall against the one
And one by one ye all shall fall
And though you try to get back home
Your cupboard's bare, without a bone
C'est la vie
C'est comme c'est quoi, ça va être
Je ne la pas c'est la
C'est la vie
C'est comme c'est quoi, ça va être
So stand up tall against the wall
And one by one ye all shall fall
And though you try to get back home
Your cupboard's bare, without a bone
Some call it Armageddon
I'm sure you've heard them say
"It's a tyrannical heaven
And we're only a moment away"
Yeah
Je ne la pas fais pas
C'est la vie
C'est comme c'est quoi, ça va être
Je ne les pas
C'est la vie
C'est comme c'est quoi, ça va être
Au revoir
Thank you very much, thank you
