Introduction
2004
When people run in circles The dreams in which I'm dying No tomorrow, no tomorrow Mad world, mad world, mad world Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday Look right through me, look right through me Going nowhere, going nowhere No expression, no expression Publisher: ROLAND ORZABAL LIMITED It's a very, very mad world Made to feel the way that every child should And their tears are filling up their glasses 'Cause I find it hard to take Worn out places, worn out faces Children waiting for the day they feel good Songwriter: Roland Orzabal Sit and listen, sit and listen I find it kind of sad All around me are familiar faces I find it hard to tell you No one knew me, no one knew me Are the best I've ever had I find it kind of sad Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow And I find it kind of funny Are the best I've ever had Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson 'Cause I find it hard to take The dreams in which I'm dying And I find it kind of funny I find it hard to tell you It's a very, very mad world Went to school and I was very nervous When people run in circles Bright and early for their daily races
