Lyrics and translation Alma Cogan - Life is Just a Bowl of Cherries
People
are
queer,
they're
always
crowing,
scrambling
and
rushing
about;
Les
gens
sont
bizarres,
ils
sont
toujours
en
train
de
se
vanter,
de
se
bousculer
et
de
courir
partout
;
Why
don't
they
stop
someday,
address
themselves
this
way?
Pourquoi
ne
s'arrêtent-ils
pas
un
jour,
et
ne
se
posent-ils
pas
la
question
?
Why
are
we
here?
Where
are
we
going?
It's
time
that
we
found
out.
Pourquoi
sommes-nous
ici
? Où
allons-nous
? Il
est
temps
que
nous
le
découvrions.
We're
not
here
to
stay;
we're
on
a
short
holiday.
Nous
ne
sommes
pas
là
pour
rester
; nous
sommes
en
vacances.
Life
is
just
a
bowl
of
cherries.
La
vie
n'est
qu'un
bol
de
cerises.
Don't
be
so
serious;
life's
too
mysterious.
Ne
sois
pas
si
sérieux
; la
vie
est
trop
mystérieuse.
You
work,
you
save,
you
worry
so,
Tu
travailles,
tu
économises,
tu
t'inquiètes
tellement,
But
you
can't
take
your
dough
when
you
go,
go,
go.
Mais
tu
ne
peux
pas
emporter
ton
argent
quand
tu
pars,
pars,
pars.
So
keep
repeating
it's
the
berries,
Alors,
continue
de
répéter
que
c'est
la
cerise,
The
strongest
oak
must
fall,
Le
chêne
le
plus
robuste
doit
tomber,
The
sweet
things
in
life,
to
you
were
just
loaned
Les
choses
douces
de
la
vie,
on
te
les
a
prêtées
So
how
can
you
lose
what
you've
never
owned?
Alors
comment
peux-tu
perdre
ce
que
tu
n'as
jamais
possédé
?
Life
is
just
a
bowl
of
cherries,
La
vie
n'est
qu'un
bol
de
cerises,
So
live
and
laugh
at
it
all.
Alors
vis
et
ris
de
tout
cela.

lucky
stars

étoiles
chanceuses
au-dessus
de
toi
Live
and
