You Never Can Tell (C'est la Vie)

It was a teenage wedding and the old folks wished them well
 You could see that Pi'erre did truly love the mademoiselle
 And now the young monsieur and madame have rung the chapel bell
 "C'est la vie", said the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
 They furnished off an apartment with a two room Roebuck sale
 The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and ginger ale
 But when Pi'erre found work, a little money coming worked out well
 "C'est la vie", said the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell
 They had a Hi-Fi phono', boy, did they let it blast
 700 little records, all rocking rhythm and jazz
 When the sun went down, the rapid tempo of the music fell
 "C'est la vie", said the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell

 They bought a souped-up jitney, it was a cherry-red '53
 Drove it down to Orleans to celebrate the anniversary
 It was there that Pi'erre was wedded to the lovely mademoiselle
