Tous les jours tous les jours
Il faut gagner tous les jours il faut gagner
Il faut courir tous les jours il faut courir
Il faut tenir tous les jours il faut tenir
Il faut y aller tous les jours il faut y aller
On va crever tous un jour on va crever
Je veux t'aimer tous les jours je veux t'aimer
The lyrics to Manu Chao’s song Il faut manger can be translated to “Every day, every day… We need to win every day, we need to run every day, we need to endure every day, we need to go for it every day. We need to win every day, we’re all going to die someday, I want to love you every day, I want to love you."
The song is a commentary on the pressures of modern society and the importance placed on productivity and success. The repetition of “every day” emphasizes the constant demand to perform and thrive in a competitive world. The line “We’re all going to die someday” serves as a reminder that the pursuit of success should not come at the cost of neglecting relationships and meaningful connections. The desire to love suggests that Manu Chao values human connection and emotional fulfillment over materialistic success.
Overall, the song encourages listeners to strike a balance between ambition and human connection, emphasizing that both are important for a fulfilling life.
