Lyrics
- Homer:
- Well, kids, there it is! 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!
