Mad Mad World Lyrics

(Lisa-Catherine Cohen/David Hallyday/Tammy Hutson)

One sign says up, the other down, no matter which one that I take
End up runnin' round and round, can't find my way
And this frustration's building up until I gotta say.

It's a mad mad world, it's a mad mad world
So much confusion could be wrong, could be right.
It's a mad mad world, it's a mad mad world
So much illusion could be dark, could be light.

You make a plan, it don't work out but then, you meet somebody else
Never even dreamed about, you feel a fool!
You're always where you're supposed to be and that's the only rule.

It's a mad mad world, it's a mad mad world
So much confusion could be wrong, could be right.
It's a mad mad world, it's a mad mad world
So much illusion could be dark, could be light... Alright!

Want what you got, not what you don't.
Can't make the train wants to go any faster
Than that old train wants to go, so take it slow.
You're gonna get there when you get there
THough you never know-no, you ever know.

It's a mad mad world, it's a mad mad world
Too many choices being thrown left and right.
It's a mad mad world, it's a mad mad world
Can't hear through the noises, one voice in the night.
It's a mad mad world, it's a mad mad world
So much confusion could be wrong, could be right.
It's a mad mad world, it's a mad mad world
So much illusion could be dark, could be light.
