Translation of the song lyrics Folle semence - Brigada Flores Magon

Folle semence (original)

Ils ont sem les graines du capital
Cultiv l’esprit ultralibral
Plaid pour l’conomie de march
Libre entreprise, proprit prive
Ils ont promis toutes les richesses
qui le voudrait vraiment
Ils ont jur que leurs rves dments
Un jour deviendraient ralit
Ni classe ni tat
Poing lev contre le capital
Ni classe ni tat
Tous ensemble pour la grve gnrale
Eux rcoltent maintenant leur profit
Mais combien d’autres mnent une vie
Vide, plongs dans l’ennui
Mtro, boulot, dodo, survie…
Travailler pour vivre, vivre pour travailler
Travailler pour vivre, vivre pour consommer.
Perdre sa vie la gagner

Folle semence (translation)

They sowed the seeds of capital
Cultivate the ultraliberal spirit
Advocacy for the market economy
Free enterprise, private ownership
They promised all the riches
who would really want it
They swore that their crazy dreams
One day would come true
Neither class nor status
Raised fist against capital
Neither class nor status
All together for the general strike
They are now reaping their profit
But how many others lead a life
Empty, immersed in boredom
Subway, work, sleep, survival...
Work to live, live to work
Work to live, live to consume.
Lose your life earn it
