Shirley Bassey - C'est La Vie Lyrics






Ah oh hey hey
Ah oh ah oh
I say, hey boy sitting in your tree
Mummy always wants you to come for tea (ah oh)

Don't be shy, straighten up your tie
Get down from your tree house sitting in the sky (ah oh)
I want to know just what to do
Is it very big, is there room for two

(Ah oh)
I got a house with windows and doors
I'll show you mine if you show me yours
Gotta let me in, hey hey hey

Let the fun begin, hey
I'm the wolf today, hey hey hey
I'll huff, I'll puff
I'll huff, I'll puff, I'll blow you away

Say you will, say you won't
Say you'll do what I don't (say you will)
Say you're true, say to me
See'est la vie

Say you will, say you won't
Say you'll do what I don't (say you will, hey)
Say you're true, say to me (get a life)
See'est la vie

Do you play with the girls, play with the boys?
Do you ever get lonely playing with your toys? (ah oh)
We can talk, we can sing
I'll be the queen and you'll be the king (ah oh)

Hey boy, in your tree
Throw down a ladder, make room for me (ah oh)
I got a house with windows and doors
I'll show you mine if you show me yours

Gotta let me in, hey hey hey
Let the fun begin, hey
I'm the wolf today, hey hey hey
I'll huff, I'll puff

I'll huff, I'll puff, I'll blow you away
Say you will, say you won't
Say you'll do what I don't (say you will)
Say you're true, say to me (yeah)

See'est la vie (oh)
Say you will, say you won't (say you will)
Say you'll do what I don't (oh, say you will)
Say you're true, say to me (what are you like?)

See'est la vie
Hey hey
Na na na, hey
Na na na, oh

Na na na, hey
Hey hey hey hey
Say you will, say you won't
Say you'll do what I don't (say you will)

Say you're true, say to me
Want to say
See'est la vie
Say you will, say you won't

Say you'll do what I don't (say you will)
Say you're true, say to me
(I fight like my dad as well)
See'est la vie

Na na na, hey
Na na na, oh
See'est la vie
Na na na, hey

Hey hey
See'est la vie (hey hey

    I Have & i like this fabulous album vinyl !
    Shirley Bassey ++++++

  2. F.... ....

    alas vulnerability is not an emotion Dame Shurkey can express . This is very forgettable. im a big fan of Shirleys but dont think many would rate this as one of her best.

    F.... ....

    I disagree with you on your assessment, as I think Dame Shirley did a great job with this song. And, big fans know her name, and if you really have taken time to view and listen to the over 800 performances and recordings that I have uploaded you would see numerous beautiful, soft songs by this lady with great emotion.

  3. K.... M....

    There is another song from this album that is one of my all time favourites. Come In From The Rain.

  4. a.... i....

    Трогательно и красиво. Спасибо.

    Ugonna...Wow that is wonderful news! I think I know how to make an announcement that goes out to everyone. I think! Regards, Scot

  9. S.... B....

    Dame Shirley, and as long as you are in NYC, what's another 3200 miles more to also stop in Los Angeles to perform as well. Happy 60th Anniversary!, Regards, Scot

  10. D.... V....

    such a good song... lyrics very familiar:
    "I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world
    And fool enough to think that's what I'll find"
    thanx for posting :)

    Karen Carpenter is definiately one of the greats! It was so sad that her life was cut so short for she had so much more to give to the world with her wonderful music. This song written by Richard Carpenter has so much depth and meaning. The great thing about classic songs is that they can be sung/covered by many different artists each bringing their own musical talents and and personalities into the song. I love both Karen's and Shirley's renditions!

  12. S.... B....

    What a great comment!...I just believe that Dame Shirley tunes into Youtube from time to time to read comments from her fans from around the world. She is truely blessed to have fans such as yourself. Regards, Scot
