歌词

[Verse 1]

Never been near a university

Never took a paper or a learned degree

[PreChorus]

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

But it's nothing that I care about

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

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

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

Or get past the cover of your books, profound

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

[PreChorus]

And some of your friends thinks it's really unsound

That you're even seen talking to me

[Chorus]

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

[Bridge]

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 anyway

[Chorus]

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

I love you

[Verse 3]

If depth of feeling is a currency

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

Then I'm the man who grew the money tree

No chain of office and no hope of getting one

[PreChorus]

Some of your friends are too brainy to see

That they're paupers and that's how they'll stay

[Chorus]

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

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 Mayor

[Outro]

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton

Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton
