Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere
Going nowhere
[Verse 2]
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression
No expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow
No tomorrow
[Verse 3]
And I find it kinda funny
Find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I ever had
I find it hard to tell ya
Find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
[Verse 4]
Mad world
Mad world
[Verse 5]
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Wanna feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen
Sit and listen
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
And I find it kinda funny
Find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I ever had
Find it hard to tell ya
Find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
[Verse 8]
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
[Verse 9]
And I find it kinda funny
Find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I ever had
Find it hard to tell you
Find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
[Verse 10]
Mad world
Mad world
Enlarge your world
Mad world
