Yes it does! I always wondered what it was about. :)) I'll try to fiddle
with it.

Humm... Interesting. Never took notice of that.

You got the first line OK, but let me try to rephrase:

If the image gives the illusion of knowing (or knowledge)
It's because the saying pretends that to believe,
The important would only be to see

This is related to the saying "Il faut le voir pour le croire", that I
think has the english equivalent of "Seeing is believing".

And Lofofora is a french rock/punk band. ;)

Thanks for your help. 

Si l'image donne l'illusion de savoir
C'est que l'adage pretend que pour croire,
L'important ne serait que de voir
