All around me are familiar faces

Worn-out places, worn-out faces

Bright and early for their daily racesGoing nowhere, going nowhere

Their tears are filling up their glasses

No expression, no expression

Hide my head, I wanna drown my sorrow

No tomorrow, no tomorrow

All around me are familiar faces

Worn-out places, worn-out faces

Bright and early for their daily races

Going nowhere, going nowhere

Their 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

Mad world

Happy birthday, happy birthday

Children waiting for the day they feel good

Happy birthday, happy birthday

And 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
