All around me
Are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces
Bright and early
For the daily races
Goin' nowhere
Goin' nowhere
And their tears are fillin'
Up their glasses
No expression
No expression
Hide my head
I wanna 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 dyin'
Are the best I 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 waitin'
For the day they feel good
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Made to 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 dyin'
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
