["Mad Mad World":]

I was standing with my paper there, minding my own news
For everything that someone said someone else had a different view
I watched the whole thing there unfold upon my TV screen
"A new world order is on its way," well, just pass the popcorn please

You don't mean to tell me no one else is gonna get hurt
When there's folks at home who eat dog food and they can't afford a shirt

Sure find out real fast just who's a sitting duck
When it's a…

(mad, mad world)—shake your hands and say good luck
(mad, mad world)—I cannot believe this stuff
(mad, mad world)—getting madder every day
(mad, mad world)—get involved and they'll blow you away

Sure find out real fast when you're a sitting duck
Well, it's a mad, mad world

A little man sits up way high, way up above the crowd
Can you make them dance real fast, can you make them cheer out loud?
Money doesn't talk and yet it sounds like a big machine
A voice on high says you reap what you sow, just keep your own nose clean

(mad, mad world)—shake your hands and say good luck
(mad, mad world)—I cannot believe this stuff
(mad, mad world)—getting madder every day
(mad, mad world)—get involved and they'll blow you away

Sure find out real fast just when you've had enough
Well, it's a mad, mad world
(mad mad world) …

["The Good God Is A Woman And She Don't Like Ugly":]

[Chuck D.:]
She'll knock you right off this planet
To those opposed and take it for granted
Who knows it grows from those that planned it
Who ran for office and they can't stand it?
Who robbed and stole and took full advantage
And hide the shock with all them antics?
Whose souls exposed cause I dig granite
We rock and roll, they don't understand it
And damn the wack cuz they don't want it
Your gold and diamonds so what you bought it
You don't know what I know, you just sport it
Bodyguards scared but you still flaunt it
People died in them mines and they just caught it
Sly slick the wicked, do you support it?
Kicking ask me the questions, y'all know I taught it
Want war? Shut up! Cuz you ain't fought it…!

C'mon!
Terrrible
Power to the people
Put your hands in the air

Terrible
C'mon
C'mon!
