All around me are familiar faces Worn out places - worn out faces Bright and early for their daily races Going nowhere - going nowhere 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 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 (It's a Mad World) Mad World Mad World (Mad World) Mad World
