I think you'd find out that there is no such thing as a simple bug
tracking system.

I'd recommend you see if RT works for you.  Jesse has written it in such a
fashion that it is easily extended.  It also (secretly) powers most NOC's
trouble ticket systems but they might not admit it.

You can find it at: http://www.bestpractical.com/rt/

I agree that Bugzilla is huge and a pain.  That said, once working, it is
pretty cool.  I'd recommend RT though, it usually fits what people need
when they say they need bugtracking but it usually never comes up as a
possible solution. (But it should!)
