Capital City Lyrics – The Simpsons

Capital City Text

---

(version sung as OFF enters Capital City:)
(lines by members of OFF are spoken, not sung; Tony's line "Hey,
good to see you" is also spoken.)

Homer: Well, kids, there it is! Capital City!
Marge: Look, the Cross-Town Bridge!
(begin vamp)
Bart: Wow!
Homer: Wow.

Tony Bennett: There's a swingin' town I know called... Capital
City.

Lisa: The Penny Loafer!

Tony: People stop and scream hello in... Capital City.

Homer: Kids, look! Street crime!

Tony: It's the kind of place that makes a bum feel like
a king.

Homer: Wow, that's service!

Tony: And it makes a king feel like some nutty, cuckoo,
super-king.

Marge: Look, it's Tony Bennett!
Tony: Hey, good to see you.

It's against the law to frown in... Capital City.
You'll caper like a stupid clown when you chance
to see...

Marge: Fourth Street and 'D'!

Tony: Fourth Street and 'D'! Yeah!
Once you get a whiff of it, you'll never want to roam.

Homer: The Duff brewery!

Tony: Capital City, my home sweet, yeah!
Capital City, that happy-tal city,
It's Capital City,
my home sweet swingin' home!

All: Capital City! Yeah!

Closing credits version:
Tony Bennett: There's a swingin' town I know called... Capital City.
People stop and scream hello in... Capital City.
It's the kind of place that makes a bum feel like a king.
And it makes a king feel like some nutty, cuckoo,
super-king.

It's against the law to frown in... Capital City.
You'll caper like a stupid clown when you chance to see...
Fourth Street and 'D'! Yeah!

Once you get a whiff of it, you'll never want to roam,
From Capital City, my home sweet, swingin' home!
