A Topsy-Turvy World

Imagine if everything was topsy-turvy The sky was a bright yellow green Grass was a deep shade of crimson The strangest darn sight you've seen People walking around upside down No need for wearing shoes Six foot birds with smelly breath A dog with a very loud mew It would seem like a funny world If all the pigs wore pants An elephant doing a pirouette Even crocodiles doing a dance You'd eat some meat for a snack For the main course only good stuff Like some apple right-side-up cake Which you could always get enough What a topsy-turvy world it would be If you greeted friends with “good-bye” Total confusion would surely reign Happy things would make you cry
