| I was standing with my paper there
|
| Minding my own news
|
| For everything that someone said
|
| Someone else had a different view
|
| I watched the whole thing there
|
| Unfold upon my tv screen
|
| «A new world order is on it’s way»
|
| Well pass the popcorn please
|
| You don’t mean to tell me
|
| No one here is going to get hurt
|
| When there’s folks at home who
|
| Eat dog food they can’t afford a shirt
|
| Sure find out real fast who’s a sitting duck
|
| When it’s a.. .
|
| Mad mad world… shake your hands
|
| And say good luck. |
| it's a
|
| Mad mad world. |
| I can not believe this stuff. |
| a
|
| Mad mad world… getting madder every day…
|
| Mad mad world… get involved and they’ll blow you away
|
| Sure find out real fast when you’re a sitting duck
|
| That it’s a mad mad world
|
| A little man sits up way high
|
| Way above the crowd
|
| Can you make them dance real fast
|
| Can you make them cheer real loud
|
| Money doesn’t talk it swears
|
| It sounds like a big machine
|
| A voice on high says you reap what you sow
|
| Just keep your own nose clean
|
| More smoke fills up the air
|
| More toxins up the creek
|
| That’s when the cash it changes hands
|
| So we turn the other cheek
|
| Sure find out real fast just when you’ve
|
| Had enough when it’s a…
|
| CHORUS
|
| He walks into the office and
|
| He finds a big pink slip
|
| It’s says «you are no longer needed here
|
| So take a good long trip»
|
| You can take your gold watch and
|
| Stick it you know where
|
| Cause he’s fired up and he’s jacked up and
|
| He’s loaded up for bear
|
| CHORUS |
