I think this song talks about how today's world wants to force us into a job and a life that we don't want to live. But then starkly contrasts this notion with the refrain stating basically that musicians, and in this case los campensinos!, are beacons of hope to the downtrodden office workers of the world who wanted to be musicians.
this lyric gives me the impression that this is from the perspective of a creative individual trying to be stifled by society.
Singing 'I see songs in shapes and colours
Not nuclear physics or pottery ovens
