All around me are familiar faces, worn out places, worn out faces
Running early for their daily races, going nowhere, going nowhere
The tears are filling up their gla**es, no expression, no expression
And my head, I'm gonna drown my sorrow, no tomorrow, no tomorrow
[Chorus]
And I find it kind of funny, a funny kind of sad
That 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
Children waiting for the day they feel good, happy birthday, happy birthday
And I feel that 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
And all teachers tell me what's my lesson, look right through me, look right through me
[Chorus]
And I find it kind of funny, a funny kind of sad
That 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
Mad world
Mad world
