Seven hundred million Chinese
And me, and me, and me
With my life, my little home
My headache, my liver pain
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life

Eighty million Indonesians
And me, and me, and me
With my car and my dog
His Canigou when he barks
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life

Three or four hundred million blacks
And me, and me, and me
Who goes to the tanning salon
To the sauna to lose weight
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life

Three hundred million Soviets
And me, and me, and me
With my habits and my tics
In my little bed of goose feathers
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life

Fifty million imperfect people
And me, and me, and me
Who watches Catherine Langeais
On television at home
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life

Nine hundred million starving people
And me, and me, and me
With my vegetarian diet
And all the whiskey I drink
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life

Five hundred million South Americans
And me, and me, and me
I'm naked in my bath
With a girl who cleans me
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life

Fifty million Vietnamese
And me, and me, and me
On Sundays hunting rabbits
With my gun, I'm the king
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life

Five hundred billion little Martians
And me, and me, and me
Like a stupid Parisian
I'm waiting for my end of month check
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life
I think about it and then I forget
That's life, that's life
I think about it and then I forget
