I can’t believe what I just saw, right before my eyes Deja vu I know you’re feeling it too, like we’re in another life Years past, the faces they change, the same mistakes get made It’s disappointing that the lessons we learn get lost along the way It’s a mad mad world we’re living in It’s a mad mad world we’re living in When time and place have meaning only if we can pretend It’s not a mad mad world we’re living As we add long years to our life, it seems we should mature In many ways we’re no better off than the generation before It’s not the nature of sin that’s changed, just the way it manifests We cheat, lie, kill, steal like we’re destined to regress Our history repeats a story rearranged When everything seems different, but nothing real has changed
