| Everybody's runnin' in a mad, mad world
 But nobody's goin' nowhere
 Everybody's gotta have more than the others
 Gotta have more than their share
Ever since the devil tempted woman with an apple
 We've all had a burden to bare
 Now the world keeps turnin' and things are gettin' faster
 Nobody's goin' nowhere
They say the grass is greener on the other side
 When they cross over they find
 Everybody's searchin' like you and me
 Tryin' to find peace of mind
See that little boy fishin' on the river
 If I could just be like him
 I'd close my eyes and let the mad world go by
 If only I could be like him
See that little boy fishin' on the river
 If I could just be like him
 I'd close my eyes and let the mad world go by
 If only I could be like him
 I'd close my eyes and let the mad world go by
 If only I could be like him
