All around me are familiar faces
worn out places, worn out faces
bright and early for their daily races
going nowhere, going nowhere
and 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 kinda funny
I find it kinda sad,
the dreams in which I'm dying
are the best I've ever had.
I find it hard to tell you
cos I find it hard to take.
When people run in circles
it's a very, very
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 kinda funny
I find it kinda sad,
the dreams in which I'm dying
are the best I've ever had.
I find it hard to tell you
cos I find it hard to take.
When people run in circles
it's a very, very
mad world.
