Today I woke up I sometimes do that I switch on the TV I sometimes do that too I watch wars, drugs and sex, deaths Winter Olympics Jobless, homeless, lonely Wealth statistics Soaps filled with pipe dreams This is the way life seems Enjoyment or punishment? No, this is entertainment! I think I'm going mad I think I'm going mad I think I'm going mad I think I'm going mad Mad, mad, mad Mad, mad, mad Mad, mad, mad Mad, mad, mad Tonight I'll go to bed I sometimes do that I'll toss and I'll turn, see I sometimes do that too I'll think of all the things I've seen that Make me feel ashamed to be White, or even human The poorhouse and funfairs The unaware millionaires The penniless still despair The well-aware turn to prayer And it all ends up a nightmare I think I'm going mad I think I'm going mad I think I'm going mad I think I'm going mad Mad, mad, mad Mad, mad, mad I'm going mad I'm going mad
