All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, w orn out faces
Bright and early for their d aily races
Going nowhere, g oing nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
[Refrain :]
And I find it kind a f unny, I find it kind a sad
The dreams in which I'm d ying are the best I' ve
ever had
I find it hard to t ell you, 'cause I find it
hard to take
When people run in c ircles it's a very very
Mad worl d, M ad wo rld, Mad worl d, Mad world
Children waiting for the d ay they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, s it and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me w hat's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
[Refrain]
Mad w orld , Ma d wor ld, Mad world , M ad w orld
[Refrain]
Mad w orld , Ma d wor ld, I'm wa tching your world,
Mad w orld
