Never been near a university.

Never took a paper or a learnéd degree.

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.
