作曲 : John Dempsey/Dana P. Rowe
 Cal:What's in your eyes?
 "There's something scandalous here!"
 What will you say?
 "We heard the councilman curse!"
 I'm sure you've heard it before
 And will a million times more
 And used it yourself
 Along with some that are worse
 I meant, "****"
 So I said, "****"
 Grahame:Oh sweet Jesus
 Cal:That's what I do
 I shoot straight from the hip
 I rock the boats
 And tip over the scales
 Oh so don't act impressed
 Give the manners a rest
 Ask what you want
 And I'll tell you no tales
 Double talk
 Political rhetoric -
 It's for the birds
 Well me, I'm just a simple man
 With simple words -
 Sing hallelujah!
 Give me simple words
 Sing out the praises
 Of the simple man
 I say what I mean
 And I mean what I say
 And I say, I say, I say, I say, I say
 I say simple words!
 Reporters:Good gravy
 What have we here?
 There's a madman
 In the council!
 Good gravy
 What have we here?
 Madman, madman!
 Grahame:You hear that, Violet?
 Your son, the madman!
 Ruined the family name, that's all.
 The cameras are rolling.
 We're like lambs to the slaughter now!
 Cal:We play a game
 Where behaviour's what counts
 And maybe I'm
 Just too blunt to survive
 Oh but can you expect
 That the souls you elect
 Should be held to a light
 That would burn you alive?
 God, I would love
 To be able to speak
 Like a true politician
 My words would sway
 But my friends, with me
 You only get what you see
 And that's all
 That's all there is to say -
 Reporters:Sing hallelujah!
 Give me simple words
 Sing out the praises!
 Of the simple man
 Cal:I know what I like
 And I like what I know
 Cal & Reporters:And I know, we know, we know, we know, we know
 We know
 We know simple words!
 Reporters:Good gravy
 What have we here?
 There's a genius
 In the council!
 Good Gravy
 What have we here?
 Genius, genius!
 Cal:Oh -
 When I say, "Yes!"
 Reporters:Then you mean, "Yes!"
 Cal:And what I say, "No!"
 Reporters:Then that's the show, brother!
 Cal & Reporters:Sing out the verse
 There's no reason to rehearse
 When you're singing
 Those simple words.
 Sing hallelujah!
 Give me simple words
 Sing out the praises!
 Of the simple man
 We say as we do
 And we do as we say
 And we say, we say, we say, we say, we say
 We say simple words...
 Sing out those simple words
 Sing hallelujah!
 Sing out those simple words
 Sing hallelujah!
 Sing out those simple words
 Sing hallelujah!
 Sing out those simple words
 Sing hallelujah!
 Sing out those simple words
 Sing hallelujah!
 Sing out those simple words
 Sing hallelujah!
 Sing, sing, sing, simple...
 Sing, sing, sing, simple...
 Sing, sing, sing, simple words!
 Cal:We say as we do
 And we do as we say
 And we say, we say, we say, we say, we say
 We say, we say
 And we say, we say, we say, we say, we say
 We say, we say
 We say simple words!
