[Verse]
Cm                                          Bb
Chew on your pencil, you turn out the lights
Cm                                      Bb
Sad in the kitchen, one of those nights
Cm                                            Bb
The prisoners were dressed, like ladies of old
Cm                                                G7
Why did you say those titbits, will never be told

[Pre-chorus]
Fm
The cannibal yachts(?) and electrified fence
G
Whatever the fuzz wants, shoot dead or repent

[Chorus]
Cm
It's mad, mad, mad

Yes, it's mad, mad mad
                G      Ab7
Well, it's mad, mad, mad
             G       Cm
Within reason

[Verse]
Cm                                                      Bb
They slaughtered the mascot, they dressed for the feast
Cm                                                      Bb
For they are sad and blind, from the worst to the least
Cm                                                  Bb
The music was simple, went back to James Brown
Cm                                            G7
They saw a mistress, they lowered her down

[Pre-chorus]
Fm
The gorgeous this costume, well soon it’ll have mass(?)
G
As real as a drink to his glorious past

[Chorus]
Cm
It's mad, mad, mad

Yes, it's mad, mad mad
                G      Ab7
Well, it's mad, mad, mad
             G       Cm
Within reason

[Chorus]

It's mad, mad, mad

Yes, it's mad, mad mad

Within reason

[Verse]
Cm                                            Bb
Sin use and cop-blues, has clung to our lips
Cm                                            Bb
The crosses and pistols, swung at our hips
Cm                                         Bb
I cried for my supper, I spat on a plate
Cm                                              G7
When everyone tries to, become what they hate

[Pre-chorus]
Fm
The interesting captain, a smile on his face
G
So proud of the changes that he made to this place

[Chorus]
Cm
It's mad, mad, mad

Yes, it's mad, mad mad
                G      Ab7
Well, it's mad, mad, mad
             G       Cm
Within reason

Cm
It's mad, mad, mad

Yes, it's mad, mad mad
                G      Ab7
Well, it's mad, mad, mad
             G       Cm
Within reason
