Up Patriots To Arms

The fantasy of the people that has reached us
doesn't come from the stars...
To the rescue, fools, the rivers are flooding
you can stay afloat
And it's not my fault if there are executioners
if there is stupidity
if the benches are full of people feeling bad.

Up patriots to arms, Engagez-Vous
contemporary music, brings me down.

Ayatollah Khomeini for many is sanctity
you always take the bait
the barricades in the square you make on behalf of the bourgeoisie
that creates false myths of progress
Who do you think we are, by the hair we wear,
we are fireflies in the darkness.

Up etc...

The Empire of music has reached us
loaded with lies
let's retire the artistic directors
the ones in charge of culture...
and it's not my fault if there are shows
with smoke and laser beams
if the stages are full
of fools moving around.

Up etc...
