English term or phrase: TEXTE
We don't need no education
We dont need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.

French translation:On n'a pas besoin de votre éducation...
Explanation:
Pas besoin d'être embrigadés,
Pas de sombre ironie en classe.
Profs, laissez les gamins en paix.
Hé, vous, les profs, laissez les gamins.
Après tout, ce n'est qu'une brique de plus dans le mur;
oui, vous n'êtes qu'une brique dans ce mur.

D'votre éducation, on n'en a rien à faire


Explanation:
A quoi ça sert la maîtrise des idées
On veut plus de moquerie dure dans la classe
Profs! fichez la paix aux gamins!
Au total, c'est juste une brique dans le mur,
Au total, VOUS êtes juste une brique de plus dans le mur...
