Lyrics

Crosstown Bridge

Homer:

Well, kids, there it is! Capital City!

Capital City

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.

Marge:

Look, it's Tony Bennett!

Tony Bennett:

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...

Fourth Street and 'D'! Yeah!

Once you get a whiff of it, you'll never want to roam.

From Capital City, my home sweet, yeah!

Capital City, that happy-tal city,

It's Capital City,

My home sweet swingin' home!

The Simpsons:

Capital City! Yeah!

Behind the Laughter

"Capital City" is a parody of the theme from the movie New York, New York.
