Svenn tu ne sai di piú
l'umano è cattivo, crudele, nocivo
solo uno è buono e sei tu
(eheh grazie amico)
ma l'uomo profuma ogni tanto
Svenn forse tu lo sai
mi chiedo perché non valga per tenon saprei... è tardi lo sai
Buonanotte
Tu non deludermi mai

The song "Io Preferisco le Renne" by Paolo De Santis talks about preferring reindeer over humans. The song suggests that humans can be harmful, cruel, and unpleasant while only few people can be kind-hearted. The person is questioning why humans can't adopt the behavior of being good and genuine and pondering whether it's too late to change.
The singer is speaking directly to Svenn, who possibly represents the voice of wisdom or consciousness, and has a better understanding of life. The reference to reindeer infers a connection to Christmas, but it could also suggest a deeper meaning of simplicity and harmony shown in nature. The lyrics imply a need for a change in behavior and attitude towards the environment, which could be achieved by taking inspiration from animals.
The song is a thought-provoking piece that encourages the listener to reflect on the kind of person they are and the impact they have on the world. The message conveyed suggests that we should all strive to be better versions of ourselves and learn from the simplicity and purity of nature.
