All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places worn out faces
Bright and early for
their daily races
Going nowhere going 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

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in
which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very very
Mad world
Mad world

Children waiting for
the day they feel good
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday
And I feel the way
that every child should
Sit and listen sit and listen

Went to school and
I was very nervous
No one knew me
no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me
what's my lesson
Look right through me
look right through me

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very very
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Enlarging your Mad world
Mad World
