[Cheloo]
If you have no thirst for learning,
You'll be cleaning toilet bowls,
These things considered,
No one will respect you.
You should learn that in this perverted and diverse universe
You need to be well informed and learn by doing
Unless you want to become a big shot on the street, of course,
Keep in mind that it's the thought leading the fist, not the other way round.
You realize that life slaps the one who's asleep,
Ignorant and uneducated, staying unarmed,
I incite you to culture, not just to get drunk,
Because the competition is tough when you start to act fairly.
Get to study, children, and teach your parents to learn again
Because they are left behind as they get older,
I'm not a refined person, I lost that when I was a kid,
For, you know, curiosity killed the cat.
There's no reason to feel stressed out, but the alarm rings in your head
Warning you that question add up more and more.
“Believe and don't question” is one big lie,
We spent centuries trying to get the moon in our hand.

The message is simple and it's not intended for Mars:
For the sake of diversity, just
[Ombladon]
Read a book!
[Cheloo]
If you want to make light when it's nighttime for you
Educate yourself
[Ombladon]
Read a book, brother!
[Ombladon]
Whether you wear snickers or high-heel shoes,
You still get to see people getting out of their buildings,
Sad, uncultivated, desperate people,
All looking for jobs.
Life is an open book, open your mind and start studying,
One book read helps you get by in life,
You need to know how to put two words together, kid,
Otherwise, you risk your dog being smarter than you are.
Educate yourself, you know, it's not hard to do,
Not only playing cards may mean good luck to you,
Get your own position in society, it's not a game, my brother,
Be prepared to handle all hard knocks.
In fact, It's a sure thing, I'm sure that you feel alone
In a world where all the morons dream only of having a lot of money,
Only what's in your head matters when you are put to the test,
You'll slowly bury them all, one by one, in words.
