7a3 Mad Mad World Lyrics

Mad Mad World Lyrics

A little bit more attitude?



Teenage years are full of
complications

You go to school to get an education

Never realizin
that there's a limitation

If you don't get a job or a fresh occupation

With your parents there's no communication

You feel a lotta fear, a

Knowin your only destination

Is to be a nobody in
this population

So you set ahead with your I-can't-do's

Leavin your

air

The attitude we take is "I don't care"

But I guess it hurts me
more than any other

That's not a kid, that's my little brother

Death is walkin the nation, takin boys and girls

And all I say to
myself is it's a mad, mad world



It's a mad, mad world, whether
poor or rich

Because you're livin with the problems that you're tryin to
ditch

I mean your daughter is a addict, your husband has left

You
have to pay for the bills of your ( ? ) death

Mentally abused, day in and
day out

Your stress point fills up, you're ready to s
