Mad Mad World

Mad mad world crazy crazy planet
Mad mad world crazy crazy planet 
Okay sure I got a problem that makes me blue
But I am not alone that much is true
But nobody listens and they can’t see
They don’t know what it’s like to be me

Daybreak shines and it comes all too soon
The night invades and plunges me into gloom
Don’t want to be on medication forever more
Just wish to walk tall and proud out the door
Mad mad world what can I say
Mad mad world show me the way

Mad mad world crazy crazy planet
Mad mad world crazy crazy planet

I realise that some folks understand
That life doesn’t always go as planned
Sometimes I can’t take much more
They say it affects one in four
The stigma is real and it cuts like a knife
It causes a lot of trouble and strife

Finally it’s good to get some recognition
To highlight this disabling condition
No need to kneel and pray or say amen
World Mental Health Day October 10

Mad mad world what can I say
Mad mad world show me the way
Mad mad world crazy crazy planet
Mad mad world crazy crazy planet

Thanks Tom.
One in four is what they say, and still, they're cutting mental health and NHS down to the bone..."but at least we've got rid of the Tories"...yeaah right!
