Être Et Avoir
Zazie
To Be and To Have
Two chairs, a table, a bed, a roof, that was all we had
Twenty years old, yet dreaming big
That was all we needed
Car, a house, for sure, that’s good
But what’s really behind it?
It fills us up, but it doesn’t make us better, as far as I know
'Cause all that we are, not all that we have
All that we are, not all that we have
More beautiful, more expensive, richer, stronger, that’s all we adore
So much effort, all these treasures, what do we do with them when we’re dead?
All that gold in the bank, those weapons
Those tanks, when it’s love that we’re missing
And humanity’s a bit less human since it got played?
'Cause all that we are, not all that we have
All that we’re not, not all that we have
Two chairs, a table, a bed, a roof, that was all we had
It takes so little to be happy, that’s all I know
All that we are, not all that we have
Yeah, all that we are, not all that we have
All that we are, not all that we have
Yeah, all that we are, not all that we have
All that we are, man, that’s all I see
