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

And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
Mad world, mad world, enlarging your world
Hello teacher tell me, what's my lesson?
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
Went to school and I was very nervous
All around me are familiar faces
Their tears are filling up their glasses
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
Bright and early for the daily races
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Happy birthday, happy birthday
Mad world
Songwriter: Roland Orzabal
No expression, no expression
Look right through me, look right through me
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Mad world, mad world
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
And I feel the way that every child should
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
Going nowhere, going nowhere
When people run in circles its a very, very
Worn out places, worn out faces
And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
When people run in circles its a very, very
No one knew me, no one knew me
