Try wget, which you probably already have.  If you want to convert it to 
an mp3, run the file through ffmpeg:

ffmpeg -i file.swf -o file.mp3

or to get rid of video so you can put the file on your mp3 player:

ffmpeg -nv -i file.swf -o file.mp3

will usually do the trick.  I have run across one .swf that was 
compressed in a way ffmpeg couldn't handle, but on the whole, that will 
do it.
