It was a teenage wedding
And the old folks wished them well
You could see that Pierre did truly love the Mademoiselle
And now the young Monsieur and Madame have rung the chapel bell
"C'est la vie", say the old folks
It goes to show you never can tell
They furnished off an apartment
With a two roomer of a sale
The coolerator was crammed with TV dinners and a ginger ale
But when Pierre found work
That little money comin' worked out well
"C'est la vie", say the old folks
It goes to show you never can tell
They had a hi-fi phono, boy did they let it blast
Seven hundred little records, hard rock, rhythm and jazz
But when the sun went down
The rapid tempo of the music fell
"C'est la vie", say the old folks
It goes to show you never can tell
They bought a souped-up Jimmy
'Twas a cherry red '53
They drove it down to Orleans to celebrate their anniversary
It was there that Pierre was married to the lovely Mademoiselle
"C'est la vie", say the old folks
It goes to show you never can tell
"C'est la vie", say the old folks
It goes to show you never can tell
"C'est la vie", say the old folks
It goes to show you never can tell
