Novel Mad World Lyrics

all around me are familiar faces
worn out places
worn out faces
bright and early for the daily races
going nowhere, going nowhere
their tears are filling up their glasses
no expression, no expression
hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
no tomorrow, no tomorrow...

feels like all we know is money
find it kind of sad
conditions we are living in
the poverty is bad
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
when people wanna hurt you
it's a very, very
mad world
mad world (Oh Yeah Yeah)
mad world (Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh)
mad world (Yeah Yeah Ya Ya Ya Uh Huh)...

children waitin' for the day they feel good
happy birthday, happy birthday
and to feel the way that every child should
speak and listen
speak 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
but all this talk of money
i find it kind of sad (I Find It Kind of Sad)
conditions we are living in the poverty is bad
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
when people wanna kill you
it's a very, very
mad world (Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh)
mad world (Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh)
mad world (Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh)
mad world (Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh)...

yo, one straight level's all we got
but there's nothin' left
police be takin' shot
everybody that
children on the block
papa working at ?
mama doing a lot
but economy's in a tangle
put the peace and equality
all we goin' the same
now we started brutality
people lookin' for change
haters lookin' for blame
ten of these lookin' the same
here's the hope for humanity
'less the plan is humane...

mad world (Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh)
mad world (Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh)
mad world (Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh)
mad world (Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh)...

Yo, Yo, Yo, Yo
it's crazy right now
it's a really really really bad world
Uh uh uh uh uh
you're gonna die out there
i said it's a mad world Oh
oh oh
oh oh...
