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