What does this mean?
This is incorrect. "Parole" in English has nothing to do with a speech. To be "on parole" means to be given a conditional release from prison before the end of a sentence, for example: He was sentenced to 10 years in prison, but he was released on parole after 3 years.
This is incorrect. The "minutes" of a meeting have nothing to do with "having the floor". To take "minutes" at a meeting is to produce a written account of what is said at the meeting, so that there is a record for future reference.
This is incorrect. To "take attendance (at a class or meeting)" means to check to see who is present for a class or meeting. Often this is done by a teacher or a chair of a meeting or at the start of the session.
This is correct. Often used in meetings and presentations, the expression "to have the floor" means to have the right to speak or address the other people present. The "floor" figuratively describes the right or power to speak. When Bruno says "the floor is yours" he means that, as chairman of the meeting, he is giving Icarus the right to speak to the other members present at the meeting. Literally, the "floor" refers to the "ground" or "surface" of a space (usually in home, building or other man-made space).
This is incorrect. "To have the floor" is to have the right or power to speak, however the expression is unrelated to answering or taking questions. If Icarus wanted to give the board members the opportunity to ask questions, he would use the expression "(I'd like to) open the floor (for questions)".

lyrics: The "lyrics" of a song are the words or text of a song. The term is usually used in the plural in this context. In the audio, Edward asks "do you have any lyrics?" meaning that he wants to know if Brian has written any words to his song.
