C'est La Vie

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
