all around me are familiar faces

worn out places worn out faces

bright and early for the daily races

going nowhere going nowhere

oh

their tears are filling 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 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 children waiting for the day they feel good

happy birthday happy birthday

ever feel the way

that every child should sit and listen

sit and listen

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

smell the moving

we find it kinda funny mad world

oh it's funny and sad

and it's funny and sad

oh it's funny and sad

when i'm dying the best i've ever had
