Kush ka fuqinë,
fuqinë që të lexojë?
Kush i përgjigjet telefonatës,
të miqve në nevojë?

Super Pse-ja!
Ai është i duhuri
është Super Pse-ja!
Kush ka fuqinë,
fuqinë që të lexojë?
Kush kërkon nëpër libra,
që përgjigjet të gjejë.

Super Pse-ja!
Dhe Super Lexuesit
do të fluturojmë.

Eja sëbashku,
me Super Lexuesit.
Kur je me Super Pse-në,
të pret aventura.

Super Pse-ja dhe Super Lexuesit.
Po.
Super Pse-ja dhe Super Lexuesit.

Kur je me Super Pse-në,
të pret aventura.
