All around me are familiar faces   Worn out places, worn out faces   Bright and early for the daily races   Going nowhere, going nowhere      And the tears are filling 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 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   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 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
