A woman came and said to me 一个女人走过来对我说：

She'd seen a lady sell her baby 她看到一位女士推销她的宝宝

For ten or twenty dollars maybe 对于一二十块钱，也许

And everybody thinks she's crazy 每个人都认为她疯了

They're too blind to see 他们太盲目看

She never failed to call attention 她从来没有引起注意

To the things we never mention 要的事情，我们从来不提

Real horror, daily, courtesy of your TV 真正的恐怖，每天，你的礼貌电视

C'est La Vie 这就是生活

   

[Chorus:] [合唱： ]

A woman came and said to me 一个女人走过来对我说：

Now listen very carefully 现在仔细聆听

There's brother killing brother 有兄杀弟

People living on their knees 人们生活在自己的膝盖

Biting sugar coated bullets 咬糖衣炮弹

For the pain of this disease 对于这种疾病的痛苦

C'est La Vie 这就是生活

   

A woman came and said to me 一个女人走过来对我说：

She had a husband on an island 她丈夫在一个小岛上

Found his body on a wasteland 发现自己的身体在一片荒地

Soldiers came and took him 兵来了，把他

Just to torture her you see 你看到的只是为了折磨她

All alone she mourned her lover 独自一人，她哀悼她的情人

Crossed the sea to find a brother 渡海找哥哥

Maybe he could help her get her baby back for free 也许他可以帮助她得到她的孩子回来免费

C'est La Vie 这就是生活

   

[Chorus] [合唱]
