In A World Gone Mad – lyrics

(Words and Music by Hali Hammer)

In a world gone mad, in a world gone mad,
In a world gone mad, I’m glad – I’m glad that there are people like you ://

There is global warming, mass pollution – Governmental prostitution
Defilement of our constitution – Soul and body destitution

But there are those who will aid anyone
Who undo ills that have been done
Who make the time for helping one-on-one
Who can change the world, and still have fun

Who feel empathy is an attribution
And love should be shared without dilution
Those who make a contribution
And are not the problem, but the solution

In a world gone mad, in a world gone mad,
In a world gone mad, I’m glad – I’m glad that there are people like you ://

(Instrumental)

There are homophobics and racism – Unjust laws and crowded prisons
Fundamentalist religions – Selfishness and egotism
But there’s the humble genius, the honest seeker,
The ones that cheer you when life gets bleaker
The demonstrator, the peacekeeper
The optimist and the thought-leaper

And there are those who will share anything
Whose winters look a lot like spring
Who take the needy beneath their wing
And those who sit with friends and sing

In a world gone mad, in a world gone mad,
In a world gone mad, I’m glad – I’m glad that there are people like you ://
