Lyrics
Mad World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Certain leaders build their tools of death
Saying it's all to keep the peace
They're saying one thing doing another
Both sides of the scales of power
The deadly loads increase
Mad world we're living in a mad world
We're living in a mad mad mad mad mad world
As they sit down at the table
Trapping the media's narrow view
They prepare for their intervention
A military masadventure or two
People today ask fewer questions
Accepting the excuses on TV
As negotiations grab the attention
They repeat the lies
Until they sound like the truth
Mad world we're living in a mad world
We're living in a mad mad mad mad mad world
