Mad World


All around me are familiar facesWorn out placesWorn out facesBright and early for their daily racesGoing nowhereGoing nowhereTheir tears are filling up their glassesNo expressionNo expressionHide my head I want to drown my sorrowNo tomorrowNo tomorrowAnd I find it kind of funnyI find it kind of sadThe dreams in which I’m dyingAre the best I’ve ever hadI find it hard to tell youI find it hard to takeWhen people run in circlesIt’s a very veryMad worldMad worldChildren waiting for the day they feel goodHappy birthdayHappy birthdayMade to feel the way that every child shouldSit down and listenSit down and listenWent to school and I was very nervousNo one knew meNo one knew meHello teacher tell me what’s my lessonLook right through meLook right through meAnd I find it kind of funnyI find it kind of sadThe dreams in which I’m dyingAre the best I’ve ever hadI find it hard to tell youI find it hard to takeWhen people run in circlesIt’s a very veryMad worldMad worldenlarged in your worldMad world
