So this is where we are

The other half just don't care, you see

You don't want to fuck with us

When it feels like the world's gone mad

So tell me what's the news

And what is it you want me to see

We're lying to ourselves

And dancing by the light of the screen

Another man holding a microphone

Trying to say something at all

Or finding himself on an empty road

F#m E

Trying to choose which way to go

[Bridge]

D F#m E

So, you wanna make some money?

F#m

You wanna make some money

So, you wanna be somebody?

You wanna make some money

When it feels like the world's gone mad
