Same Old Madness (Live in Chicago, May 1982)

[Verse 1]

In the morning, reading the paper

Read the front page to the back page

Welcome to the nuclear age

No more time for vicious outrage

[Chorus]

Same old madness

Same old madness

Same old madness

Same old madness

[Verse 2]

Riots in London, riots in Ireland

Riots in Tokyo, riots in Thailand

Riots right here in our homeland

Regan sits behind while sneering

Soviets are domineering

Third world states need engineering

No more time for loving and caring

[Chorus]

Same old madness

Same old madness

Same old madness

Same old madness

[Verse 3]

In the evening, reading the paper

Read the front page through the back page

Welcome to the modern age

It's the very late disgrace

[Chorus]

Same old madness

Same old madness

Same old madness

Same old madness

Same old madness

Same old madness

Same old madness

Same old madness
