The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Toujours Pas Une Tune" by the artist "Trust"

Contents

"Toujours Pas Une Tune" by the French heavy metal band Trust is a working-class outcry against empty promises from politicians and media manipulation.

The song's opening lines see the narrator distancing himself from politicized songs, emphasizing his belonging to the common people suffering from social problems. He refuses to dwell on his past, recognizing that it won't change the present situation.

He then criticizes both left and right-wing politicians, calling them "spinning" and "causing a runny nose," hinting at their hypocrisy and ineffectiveness. Despite their promises, his pockets remain empty. The illusions of a "bright tomorrow" and reminders of a "dull yesterday" only highlight that the working class is at the mercy of the ruling class.

The call to "not make wrong moves within the law" can be interpreted as a warning not to step outside the system that keeps people subdued. At the same time, the narrator urges listeners not to blindly trust the "daily newspapers" that "feed you with nothing" and to think critically.

The song's final lines urge listeners to "think with their heads," reject passivity, and fight for change. The image of "masterminds made of mud" symbolizes the collapse of the existing system and the hope for a brighter future.

Pas de chants politiques et pas de critiques

Je suis d'une classe sociale où l'on a souvent mal

Vous parler de mon passé peut vous intéresser

Je ne veux plus perdre mon temps en boniments

La gauche qui virevolte la droite qui s'enrhume

J'écoute et dans mes poches j'ai toujours pas une tune

Les lendemains brillants et le passé terni

Arrivent à me faire sentir qu'on est à leur merci

Faut pas faire de faux pas dans la légalité

N'empêche qu'il y a des types qui se font interner

Vos journaux quotidiens vous saoulent avec un rien

Pensez avec votre tête il en est encore temps

Pense avec ta tête pense plus avec ton cul

Laisse tomber ce beau rôle d'ingénu

Un jour un jour c'est sûr reviendra le jour pur

Où des maîtres-penseurs on fera de l'ordure
