En Marche, En Replay Lyrics in English Tryo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song En Marche, En Replay by Tryo from French to English.
Intro
Pa, pa-dam, pa, pa-dam
Pa, pa-dam, pa, pa-dam
Faubourg Saint-Honoré street
Locked in his aquarium
In his private apartments
Mister perfects his reforms
Far from the street rumors
Under the gilding of his palace
Mister converses with himself
In a sophisticated verb
Has not learned about the yellow vests
And the calls for public humiliation
And it's the whole ENA flying away
The great school of life
Marching in replay
Isolates, isolates itself in Faubourg Saint-Honoré
Marching in replay
Isolates, isolates itself, the prince, His Majesty
The allies are the enemies
The enemies, the allies
And the vultures of the homeland
Circle above the palace
Dizzying embodiment
Of a country in turmoil
Workers, big bosses
The high and the lowly
In the languor of protocols
Mister walled in his silence
Feeds on the Bristol cards
That make him discover France
Marching in replay
Isolates, isolates itself in Faubourg Saint-Honoré
Marching in replay
Isolates, isolates itself, the prince, His Majesty
Pa, pa-dam, pa, pa-dam
Pa, pa-dam, pa, pa-dam
Pa, pa-dam, pa, pa-dam
Pa, pa-dam, pa, pa-dam
Who will dare to report to him
Shameful representation
That outside the palace
He's a statesman without pants
The ghosts of the nation
All the heroes who died for France
Join him on the steps
Isn't my presidency beautiful?
Far from the city's clamor
Far from the revolts and hatred
Mister raises his chin
For his republican guard
Marching in replay
Isolates, isolates itself in Faubourg Saint-Honoré
Marching in replay
Isolates, isolates itself, the prince, His Majesty
Marching in replay
Isolates, isolates itself in Faubourg Saint-Honoré
Marching in replay
Isolates, isolates itself, a prince at the Elysée

SONG MEANING

Tryo's reggae‐folk groove turns into biting satire in “En Marche, En Replay”. The title is a playful twist on President Emmanuel Macron’s political movement (En Marche) and the idea of watching a show “on replay”, hinting that the head of state keeps repeating the same script. Throughout the song, the band paints a vivid picture of a modern king locked inside the gilded Elysée Palace on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, polishing reforms while France erupts outside. References to the elite school ENA, the gilets jaunes protests, and “Bristol cards” (briefing notes) underline how detached this leader seems from real life, surrounded by protocol and self-talk instead of listening to the streets.

Wrapped in catchy “pa-pa-dam” hooks, the lyrics mix humor with sharp criticism: allies turn into enemies, vultures circle, and historical “ghosts of the nation” question the beauty of this presidency. By repeating the chorus “En marche en replay – S’isole”, Tryo suggests a loop of isolation where the president, dubbed “the prince, His Majesty”, remains cut off from workers, bosses, and everyday citizens. The song invites listeners to dance, sing, and reflect on power, privilege, and the importance of staying connected to the people you claim to lead.
