In a world gone mad

In a world gone mad
It is hard to think right
Work seems my only escape
Doing the dishes, washing the clothes
Bathing the dog are just another escape
A world gone mad.

In a world gone mad
Things are just so bad
Companies fail and banks foreclose
Wars are started that never end
So much violence, hate and spite
A world gone mad.

In a world gone mad
Politicians care about their own position
Women and children raped and murdered
People laugh at a snatch thief victim
Snatch thieves and pickpockets everywhere
Whores and pimps run the street
A world gone mad.

In a world gone mad
Money money money
Ain't so funny anymore
Cause love peace and happiness no longer
Money makes the world go around
Even banks become the Chetiyars and Ah Longs
A world gone mad

In a world gone mad
The only resolve is to look within yourself
Find the peace and love within you
And share this intimacy with others
Heal the pain and the wounds
Give a hug or a smile
Say good morning and hello, how are you
And a mad world would not be so bad

Take care and be well.
