[00:01.16] Songs Title：the mayor of simpleton
[00:03.12]
[00:07.86] Never been near a university,
[00:11.10]
[00:14.66] Never took a paper or a learned degree,
[00:17.97]
[00:21.40] And some of your friends think thats stupid of me,
[00:24.24] But its nothing that I care about.
[00:27.52] Well I dont know how to tell the weight of the sun,
[00:31.16] And of mathematics well I want none,
[00:34.85] And I may be the mayor of simpleton,
[00:38.13] But I know one thing,
[00:41.28] And thats I love you.
[00:44.31]
[00:45.12] When their logic grows cold and all thinking gets done,
[00:48.52] Youll be warm in the arms of the mayor of simpleton.
[00:55.89]
[00:59.38] cant I have been there when brains were handed round
[01:02.19] （please be upstanding for the mayor of simpleton）,
[01:06.25] Or get past the cover of your books profound,
[01:09.49] （please be upstanding for the mayor of simpleton）,
[01:13.33] And some of your friends thinks its really unsound,
[01:16.45] That youre ever seen talking to me.
[01:19.20] Well I dont know how to write a big hit song,
[01:23.11] And all crossword puzzles well I just shun,
[01:26.48] And I may be the mayor of simpleton,
[01:29.85] But I know one thing,
[01:32.85] And thats I love you.
[01:35.77]
[01:36.46] Im not proud of the fact that I never learned much,
[01:40.20] Just feel I should say,
[01:42.89]
[01:43.82] What you get is all real,
[01:45.26] I cant put on an act,
[01:47.13] It takes brains to do that anyway. （and anyway...）
[01:52.09] And I cant unravel riddles, problems and puns,
[01:55.77] How the home computer has me on the run,
[01:59.17] And I may be the mayor of simpleton,
[02:02.60] But I know one thing,
[02:05.35] And thats I love you （I love you）.
[02:13.57] If depth of feeling is a currency,
[02:16.86] （please be upstanding for the mayor of simpleton）,
[02:20.56] Then Im the man who grew the money tree,
[02:23.30] （no chain of office and no hope of getting one）.
[02:27.11] Some of your friends are too brainy to see,
[02:30.11] That theyre paupers and thats how theyll stay.
[02:33.29] Well I dont know how many pounds make up a ton,
[02:36.92] Of all the nobel prizes that Ive never won,
[02:40.23] And I may be the mayor of simpleton,
[02:43.85] But I know one thing,
[02:46.90] And thats I love you.
[02:50.83] When all logic grows cold and all thinking gets done,
[02:54.26] Youll be warm in the arms of the mayor of simpleton.
[03:01.24] Youll be warm in the arms of the mayor of simpleton.
[03:07.42]
[03:08.10] Youll be warm in the arms of the mayor.
[03:18.20] （please be upstanding for the mayor of simpleton.）
