Ya no quiero trabajar
Trabajar trabajar trabajar trabajar trabajar
Ya no quiero trabajar
Y si la noche fueran mas largas
Y mas largo el fin de semana
Si tubiera mas vacaciones
(Pero no, pero no)
Cuando salir de la rutina
Ya me extrañana en la cantina
(Pero no, pero no)
No se que pasa
No me dejan hacer todas las cosas
Que me gustan hacer
No me interesa
Si no me dejan acer todas las
Cosas que me gustan hacer
Trabajar trabajar trabajar trabajar trabajar
Ya no quiero trabajar
Trabajar trabajar trabajar trabajar trabajar
Solo quiero escapar
Y si mañana no despiertas
Y si la muerte toca tu puerta
Y si mañana no regresas
Mejor alla te quedas
(Mejor alla)
Todo olvidarlo de vez en cuando
Por que la vida se esta acabando
(Pero no)
No se que pasa
No me dejan hacer todas las cosas
Que me gustan hacer
No me interesa
Si no me dejan hacer todas las
Cosas que me gustan hacer
Moriran moriran moriran moriran moriran
Todos moriran
Moriran moriran moriran moriran moriran
Todos moriran
Tal vez descansar quieres deseguro ocupado desde
Hace mucho tiempo alteracion de la respiracion sin
Control enloquesiendo nesesitas tiempo pero no te
Dejan descansar disfrutar para sentir la libertad
O algo de paz
The lyrics to Genitallica's song "Funeral Reggae" express the frustration of working endlessly without the ability to enjoy life's simple pleasures. The opening lines repeat "trabajar," meaning "to work" in Spanish, numerous times to emphasize the monotony of their routine. However, the singer declares, "ya no quiero trabajar," meaning "I no longer want to work," expressing a desire to escape the cycle of work and find a way to truly live.
The verses go on to explore what life would be like if there were more time for leisure, vacations, and enjoying life, but the singer seems stuck in a cycle of routine and unfulfillment. They suggest that they feel restricted and held back from doing the things they truly enjoy by unspecified forces. The themes of death and mortality are mentioned, and the chorus ends with the repeated phrase "Todos moriran," meaning "everyone will die," perhaps suggesting that we should make the most of our time on earth and not be trapped in the monotony of work.
Overall, "Funeral Reggae" is a powerful statement on the importance of finding balance in life and not being held back by societal pressures and expectations.
