Lyrics:Gary Osborne Music:Elton John | |
The fuse is set and checked once more | |
Then left beside a back street door | |
And in the cold grey light | |
Someone sees a shadow run through the night and out of sight | |
They hide inside a smoke filled room | |
To hear at last the blast of doom | |
And so the deed is done | |
They listen to the final countdown begun, three, two, one | |
Madness, it's a kind of madness | |
Tat turns good men bad | |
And we're helpless caught up in the madness | |
Of a world gone mad | |
The roar of fire rings out on high | |
And flames light up the black night sky | |
A child screams out in fear | |
A hopeless cry for help but no one is near enough to hear | |
As walls collapse and timbers flare | |
The smell of death hangs in the air | |
When help at last arrives | |
They try to fight the flame but nothing survives of all those lives | |
And it's madness, every time a victim dies | |
There is madness, burning in a blind man's eyes | |
And it's madness, hidden in the hate and pain | |
There is madness, burning in a wild man's brain | |
And it's madness, every time the bullets start | |
There is madness, burning in a poor man's heart | |
And it's madness, something that we can't control | |
There is madness, burning in a madman's soul | |
Madness |

To hear at last the blast of doom | |

Madness, it' s a kind of madness | |
Tat turns good men bad | |
And we' re helpless caught up in the madness | |
Of a world gone mad | |
The roar of fire rings out on high | |
And flames light up the black night sky | |
A child screams out in fear | |
A hopeless cry for help but no one is near enough to hear | |

And it' s madness, every time a victim dies | |
There is madness, burning in a blind man' s eyes | |
And it' s madness, hidden in the hate and pain | |
There is madness, burning in a wild man' s brain | |
And it' s madness, every time the bullets start | |
There is madness, burning in a poor man' s heart | |
And it' s madness, something that we can' t control | |
There is madness, burning in a madman' s soul | |
