Same Old Madness

In the morning, read the paper
Read the front page, read the back page
"Welcome to the nuclear age"
No more time for vicious outrage

Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness

Write to London, write to Ireland
Write to Tokyo, write to Thailand
Write us right here in our homeland
Reagan sits behind walls sneering
Soviets are domineering
Third world states need engineering
No more time for loving and caring

Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness

In the evening, reading the paper
Read the front page through the back page
"Welcome to the modern age"
It's the very latest craze

Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness

Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness

Over and over and over and over...
