Voltaire's Fable Songtext
von DESA

This is the best of all possible worlds
We kill our kill in crying
Behold the heartless devils
What we laugh, we love in smiling
Opposing sides are both right
And wrong at different times


A man complains about the price of a chair
While another is frozen into sleep
Fish and skates are pretty close
They walk along the same street
The cons and pros are relative
To what we take and what we give

We′re learning ourselves
We're learning ourselves
Giving up the mess of days
We′re learning our way

The cons and pros are relative
To what we take and what we give

Opposing sides are both right
And wrong at different times

We're learning ourselves
