Buenos Vecinos (Celia Cruz)

Life is a carnival

Anyone who thinks that life is unfair
Has to know that it’s not true
That life is beautiful, you gotta live it
Anyone who thinks they’re alone and things are bad
Has to know that it’s not true
That in life, no one is alone, there’s always someone

Oh, don’t cry, 'cause life is a carnival
It’s way better to live singing
Oh, oh, oh, oh, don’t cry
'Cause life is a carnival
And the pain fades away with singing

Anyone who thinks that life is always cruel
Has to know that it’s not true
That there are just bad moments, and everything passes
Anyone who thinks this will never change
Has to know that it’s not true
That you gotta keep your chin up and everything passes

Oh, don’t cry, 'cause life is a carnival
It’s way better to live singing
Oh, oh, oh, oh, don’t cry
'Cause life is a carnival
And the pain fades away with singing
For those who complain so much
For those who only criticize
For those who use weapons
For those who pollute us
For those who make war
For those who live in sin
For those who mistreat us
For those who infect us
