[00:00.000]	作曲 : Andrew Partridge
[00:07.185]	Never been near a university,
[00:13.926]	Never took a paper or a learned degree,
[00:19.801]	And some of your friends think that's stupid of me,
[00:24.066]	But it's nothing that I care about
[00:26.957]
[00:27.263]	Well I don't know how to tell the weight of the sun,
[00:31.098]	And of mathematics well I want none,
[00:34.408]	And I may be the Mayor of Simpleton,
[00:37.988]	But I know one thing and that's I love you
[00:44.451]
[00:44.938]	When their logic grows cold and all thinking gets done,
[00:48.178]	You'll be warm in the arms of the Mayor of Simpleton
[00:54.069]
[00:59.140]	I can't have been there when brains were handed round
[01:02.902]	(Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton),
[01:06.134]	Or get past the cover of your books profound,
[01:09.083]	(Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton),
[01:12.574]	And some of your friends thinks it's really unsound,
[01:15.887]	That you're even seen talking to me
[01:18.802]
[01:19.037]	Well I don't know how to write a big hit song,
[01:22.853]	And all crossword puzzles well I just shun,
[01:26.209]	And I may be the Mayor of Simpleton,
[01:29.518]	But I know one thing and that's I love you
[01:36.009]
[01:36.594]	I'm not proud of the fact that I never learned much,
[01:40.042]	Just feel I should say,
[01:43.560]	What you get is all real, I can't put on an act,
[01:46.780]	It takes brains to do that anyway (And anyway...)
[01:51.882]
[01:52.137]	And I can't unravel riddles, problems and puns,
[01:55.871]	How the home computer has me on the run,
[01:59.010]	And I may be the Mayor of Simpleton,
[02:02.223]	But I know one thing and that's I love you (I love you)
[02:12.247]
[02:13.381]	If depth of feeling is a currency,
[02:16.206]	(Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton),
[02:19.907]	Then I'm the man who grew the money tree,
[02:23.247]	(No chain of office and no hope of getting one)
[02:26.772]	Some of your friends are too brainy to see,
[02:29.807]	That they're paupers and that's how they'll stay
[02:33.263]
[02:34.091]	Well I don't know how many pounds make up a ton,
[02:37.068]	Of all the Nobel prizes that I've never won,
[02:40.407]	And I may be the Mayor of Simpleton,
[02:43.600]	But I know one thing and that's I love you
[02:50.208]
[02:50.416]	When all logic grows cold and all thinking gets done,
[02:54.202]	You'll be warm in the arms of the Mayor of Simpleton
[03:01.052]	You'll be warm in the arms of the Mayor of Simpleton
[03:07.945]	You'll be warm in the arms of the Mayor
[03:18.113]	(Please be upstanding for the Mayor of Simpleton)
