A woman came and said to me She'd seen a lady sell baby For ten or twenty dollars maybe And everybody thinks she's crazy too blind to see She never failed to call attention To things we never mention Real horror, daily, courtesy of TV C'est La Vie
[Chorus:] A woman came and said to me Now listen very carefully There's brother killing brother People living their knees Biting sugar coated For the pain of this disease C'est La Vie
A woman came and said to She had a husband on an island Found his body on a wasteland Soldiers and took him Just to torture her you see All alone she mourned her lover Crossed the to find a brother Maybe he could help her get her baby back free C'est La Vie
