Lyrics Mayor of Simpleton

Never been near a university

Never took a paper or learned a degree

And some of your friends think that's stupid of me

But it's nothing that

I care about

Well I don't know how to tell the weight of the sun and of mathematics well I want none

And I may be the mayor of Simpleton but I know one thing and that's I love you

When their logic grows cold and all thinking gets done you'll be warm in the arms of the mayor of Simpleton

I can't have been there when brains were handed 'round

Or get past the cover of your books profound

And some of your friends think it's really unsound that you're even seen talking to me

Well I don't know how to write a big hit song and all crossword puzzles well I just shun

And I may be the mayor of Simpleton but I know one thing and that's I love you

I'm not proud of the fact that I never learned much

Just feel I should say

What you get is all real

I can't put on an act

It takes brains to do that anyway

And I can't unravel riddles problems and puns

How the home computer has me on the run

And I may be the mayor of Simpleton but I know one thing and that's I love you

If depth of feeling is a currency

Then I'm the man who grew the money tree

Some of your friends are too brainy to see that they're paupers and that's how they'll stay

Well I don't know how many pounds make up a ton

Of all the Nobel Prizes that I've never won

And I may be the mayor of Simpleton but I know one thing and that's I love you

When all logic grows cold and all thinking gets done you'll be warm in the arms of the mayor of Simpleton

You'll be warm in the arms of the mayor of Simpleton

You'll be warm in the arms of the may-

Please be upstanding for the mayor of Simpleton
