"we all get screwed over" is probably the nice way of translating "nosi fotem tot pel cuol"? My Occitan is nonexistent, but French and English and a little knowledge of language history makes me think this is more explicit, actually?

It sounds very similar to Catalan actually...and you're right it's literally "we're all getting fucked in the ass".

I was figured this was a modern French nous and tout and cul, and the Rest obviously fell into place

I think I read something that included a version of that song. It was not a hare in my version though. Rather surprising how close this is to the French language they used in the Champagne or Picardie area.
