Another Brick In The Wall
Farinei Dla Brigna Lyrics

The lyrics to Farinei Dla Brigna’s “Another brick in the wall” speak of the struggle of a working-class community and the toll it takes on their physical and mental health. The opening lines describe a scene where the mother is cooking with a pot and the father is complaining of hunger. The cement is finished, which means they must start a new job. The singer then tells a fellow worker, Cicu, to listen to him and stop complaining. The words “tirti su dal sufà” or “get up off your suffering” encourages the listener to work hard, even when it is difficult.

The singer continues to describe the life of a farmer or a cattle herder, who must take care of all the animals and bring them to the market. If they do not make enough money, they cannot afford to buy food for themselves. The line “La muraja 's fa nen da sula” indicates that the wall is not sturdy or strong, which could represent the crumbling infrastructure of the working-class community. The final lines again encourage the listener to push through their struggles and keep working hard.
