C'est La Vie Lyrics

There's a dignity in calloused hands
The tools you have are not for sale
But sometimes you're the hammer
And sometimes
You're the nail
It's not about how you get lost
It's what you do to find the trail
Well sometimes you're Ahab
And sometimes
You're the whale
Doo-doo-doo bah
Doo-doo-doo bah
Doo-doo-doo bah
When frogs are falling from the sky
Just take responsibility
But sometimes you're the prisoner
And sometimes
You're the free
Just let your conscience be your guide
Then heartbreak hits you, c'est la vie
Well sometimes you're the Shih Tzu
And sometimes
You're the tree
Doo-doo-doo bah
Doo-doo-doo bah, that's right
Doo-doo-doo bah
Sometimes you're the river
Sometimes you're the sea
Sometimes you're a stranger to yourself, it's a dangerous place to be
But you'll be fine
Just remember where you come from
How you got the song
Then you'll always get it right more than you get it wrong
We're with you in the mirror
We're right down to the bone
Doo-doo-doo bah (c'est la vie)
Doo-doo-doo bah
Doo-doo-doo bah
Doo-doo-doo bah
Doo-doo-doo bah
Doo-doo-doo bah
