Mad world

Mad World - Gary Jules

Songwriters: Orzabal, Roland;

All around me are familiar faces

Worn out places, worn out faces

Bright and early for their daily races

Goin' nowhere, goin' nowhere

Their tears are fillin' 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 dyin'

Are the best I've ever had

I find it hard to tell you

'Cause 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

Sits and listen, sits 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

'Cause I find it hard to take

When people run in circles

It's a very, very

Mad world, mad world


A raunchy young world


Mad world
