Never been near a university, never took a paper or a learned
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 things 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 (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), and
some of your friends thinks it's really unsound that you're ever 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 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 (I love you).
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), 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 things 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 Mayor. (Please be upstanding for
the Mayor of Simpleton.)
XTC is a British alternative rock band formed in Swindon in 1972. Led by Andy Partridge (vocals, guitar) and Colin Moulding (bass), the two founding members and primary songwriters, the group went through various musical phases, from punk to new wave to a more orchestrated pop sound. Despite some popularity in the 1970s, the band never achieved mainstream commercial success, but gained a cult following thanks to the originality and complexity of their compositions. Influenced by power pop and Britpop, XTC are considered today a benchmark for genres like art rock and progressive pop. Among the most representative songs: 'Making Plans for Nigel', 'Senses Working Overtime', 'Dear God', 'Generals and Majors'.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
